Basically just the same as just defederating but you also sign a little thing promising you’ll never refederate with threads

Unironically though, anyone who does this should just be locked up

We need to shut this whole coomer thing down until we work out wtf is going on in their brains.

If my server defederated Thread but remains federated with a server that didn’t defederate Thread… My data could still land on a Thread server?

if your instance defeds threads then it blocks any information being sent to threads at all so they wont receive anything that you post, not even your upvotes on posts will federate with threads.

The only case where this gets kind of weird is if you’re on an instance that federates via an allow list of approved instances instead of using the normal method of federating with everyone by default then blocking selected bad instances (the only large instance that uses this method for federation though is hexbear as far as im aware so its not really that important).

Fedipact is people who’ve signed some thing pledging to never federate with threads, whereas all the other ones have just defederated them without signing the pact. In reality there’s not really any difference at all.

your instance is already defederated from threads

it’s almost as if a company that helped incite an ethnic cleansing just a few years ago, hosts far right stochastic terrorists like libs of tiktok (despite the owner repeatedly breaking meta’s own rules) and actively suppressed the voices of Palestinians and posts that criticised Israel doesn’t make for a good instance to federate with.

it was immensely irresponsible for any instance to federate with them, let alone the largest one.

also, having checked, hexbear has pre emptively defedded threads so theyre not going to help

poa[.]st

actually, promoting pedophile nazi instances is bad
