Meta just showed off Threads’ fediverse integration for the very first time

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I mostly agree. The one thing I will say in favour of defederation is hate content. Meta has incredibly lax moderation. People can literally say "this person deserves to be killed", or even "I would absolutely murder this person if I came across them" and Meta will be like "yeah we understand this may be disappointing to you, but we're gonna allow that to stay" if you report it.
I saw that here, too. Thought about reporting when I saw the sidebar didn't even have a rule against it (forgot which community though - my app doesn't present that in an obvious way)
There's definitely users who will do that here. There are on any platform open to sign-ups by the general public. But my experience has been that it's very likely to get removed if mods or admins are made aware. I don't think I've ever gotten a positive response on Meta.
