Threads seems to be beginning to test ActivityPub federation, and since Kbin can be used for microblogging, this affects kbin.social. What are your thoughts on federating or defederating with them?

    Why in hell would a massive social media company give two flying shits about a decentralized, comparatively tiny not-quite-one-platform?

    To eat it. To completely destroy it and thus gain greater power and control over even more.

    Like, the fediverse isn’t a threat at all to fb/meta, but people, chatting on internet, without total top down direct oversight on what comes up in your feed?

    Well how would they make their money? Or push their propaganda?
