Would make sense. They probably rushed the launch with the whole Twitter drama going on
I don’t know about everyone else but my timeline (?) on Threads is all men posting their ass on main. Not sure how strong the guidelines are being enforced at this point, but I’m not complaining.
Have you tried using this instead?
Maybe I’m misunderstanding XMPP but does it not federate? Does it not mean that on top of trusting my home server I have to trust the choice other people made with theirs?
I think that’s where I’m icky about it. I don’t know that I trust other servers more than I trust Signal. Which, I mean, is not great to say given that in a perfect world I would rather not rely on one organization to keep my “data” private - but hey.
I don’t mind so much on Lemmy or Mastodon because I’m not looking for privacy but if encryption is the main selling point of something, a random XMPP instance doesn’t really inspire confidence at the moment. But hey maybe that’ll change in the future and XMPP will require less metadata to work.
How do I trust a random XMPP server more or as much as I trust Signal to protect my data? You’re telling me if the government comes knocking for metadata on some user on a small server that the owner isn’t going to just give it away? What about anyone else on other connected servers?
You’re asking me to trust someone who hasn’t shown that they’re actively working towards privacy goals vs a centralized solution from a company that’s shown they care about privacy?
Either way, you have to trust someone to take care of your data and I do not trust a small server owner more than an entity that’s proven they do not give information to governments. Gotta pick one of two evils, I guess.
Doesn’t XMPP collect hella metadata unlike Signal?
Meta doesn’t need threads.net to harvest data from ActivityPub instances. In fact, literally anyone can do it without much effort. You’re not protecting your data by being here. It’s as public as old phpbb forums used to be even more so. That bit is a non issue (well, it is an issue…)
My issue is just with the quality of content from meta owned instances and what it’ll bring to other federated instances.
Found its way here as well wee
Not having many problems with seeing Lemmy world posts on my sh.it just.works account, but I know there’s been some instability in both instances which is probably why some things aren’t propagating properly. Yesterday and the day before were pretty rough.
It’s what struck me when I switched to Android… the play store is awful. Good on Apple, hopefully Google will follow suit.
