Across all instances

Yes its so you can use any mastodon account

Mammoth has a For You tab and I found it quite useful

Looks like someone created a pull request (a code submit) for iOS client last month then conversation stopped

Do you have Elite? Their free version seems enough for me but I saw no Ads on elite which means it likely has ads in the free version

I wonder if it has many/in the way ads before trying out

Is there a real life issue that people faced or this is all theories? I haven’t seen any sites blocking me yet with ads blocker used?

Can someone give me an easy to understand example of what they are proposing? Assume that I don’t allow them to install any software/tool that helps them track me/my device.

I saw this comment and found it helpful but its still not clear to me

At its core, it establishes software components called “attesters” that decide whether your device and/or browser is “trustworthy” enough - as defined by the website you are trying to visit. Websites can enforce which “attesters” users must accept, simply by denying everybody access who refuses to bow down to this regime; or who uses attesters that are deemed “inappropriate”; or who is on a platform that does not provide any attesters the website finds “acceptable”.

In short: it is specifically designed to destroy the open web by denying you the right to use whatever browser you want to use, on whatever operating system. It is next-level “DRM”, introduced by affiliates of a company that already has monopolized the browser market. And the creators of this “proposal” absolutely know what they are attempting here.

No. Only banned from a community called !Fediverse@lemmy.world on lemmy.world instance only. At least that’s what I guessed it was

Not OP but I am still waiting for my data request from a few weeks ago!

Wow they banned the OP of that post 3 years from that community for misinformation. Do they have proof that it is misinformation?

Banned

@booty_flexx from the community Fediverse reason: Misinformation expires: in 3 years

I could not find that post being removed from modlog. There were other removed posts but not that particular one

Whats the point of modlog if it does not record everything for auditing purpose?

I found !3dPrinting@lemmy.ml is quite active and cool

Is there a way to see why a post was deleted?

I wish Lemmy provided ability to transfer ownership of posts/comments too. With subscriptions I can easily manually do it myself

I am sure they will come after reddit next :)

Edit: regarding people’s interest in this, many projects/people have been burnt before by megacorps so its definitely worth having our guard up to anticipate what might happen in the future

Meta started working with ActivityPub working group already

https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-swicg/2023Jul/0032.html

the admins are known to be Uyghur genocide deniers and pro-North-Korea

Do you have a link for this? I want to read it. I picked lemmy.ml because it was used by Memmy app community, has decent userbase, and they block threads.net. This is the description on https://join-lemmy.org/instances : “A community of privacy and FOSS enthusiasts, run by Lemmy’s developers”

my understanding from Lemmy.world’s post was “guys, we’re years away from it if it ever happens, maybe we should chill until we learn more?”

Did they post their official’s stance on it? All I saw was a post by ruud, the instance owner on Mastodon

As I explained in another comment, if they don’t block a server, they are federating with it. Meta could be testing as we speak

According to Lemmy documentation, if they don’t block a server, it means they are federating (aka talking using ActivityPub protocol) with that server.

Lemmy has three types of federation:

• Allowlist: Explicitly list instances to connect to.
• BlockList: Explicitly list instances to not connect to. Federation is open to all other instances.
• Open: Federate with all potential instances.

Federation is enabled by default.

It means Meta could in theory talking right now with instances not blocking them as part of their testing.

I don’t know why they could not just block in the first place, then unblock/allow later if it makes sense.

This is the answer I was looking for. You mentioned a couple of very interesting points and they are well articulated.

Do you post anywhere that I can follow?

Sorry I asked the wrong question. I’ve updated it. My question should have been specific to Threads federation. You can see my clarifie point of view in another comment

Would this change your answer

You made me realise I asked the wrong question. It’s all about Threads. I updated the title and my question. Thank you

As seen on my other comments, I want Lemmy to grow so we can have diverse communities and diverse viewpoints. Why would Threads users join Lemmy if they can just subscribe to instances federating with them. That is why I don’t want to post on instances federating with Threads anymore

I also don’t want Threads to benefit from my posts/comments

Would you still post to lemmy.world or you would create another community on lemmy.ml where Threads is blocked, if you were in my case?
