Plans to pre-emptively defederate from threads?

Here we can discuss anything about this Lemmy instance/server itself.
Our XMPP support chat: Movim or XMPP client.
I'm glad to hear we won't be federating with threads or any other meta products. As far as Tumblr, things might be a bit more complicated. Chris Trottier, a developer who is the admin for calckey . social , read Meta's latest press release about Threads and it mentions Tumblr as well as Wordpress, which many websites run, who are both owned by a company known as Automattic. His take is that Meta has likely been in discussion with Automattic about Activitypub and that could have a big impact on the Fediverse.

Meta press release
I did see that, yes. Indeed I also think this isn't a big nefarious plan of Facebook to kill the Fediverse (we are probably too small for them to care), but the damage will be done by them never the less and we better try our best to limit the damage as good as we can.
For Tumblr I guess we will see in a few months.
