OP here, I say “Xeets”

It still blows my mind how this is still a question and not a default “no.”

If you’re here on Lemmy, odds are you don’t like walled gardens, and would rather roam free on the vast open plains.

If Threads federates, Meta’s basically giving its users a path out of its walled garden, into the free world.

If we, as the natives of that free world, say “Everybody defederate with Threads,” we’re just building our own wall around Meta in response to the walled garden opening its gates.

If we want people to roam wild and free in the fediverse, and we don’t like walled gardens, how does it make any sense for us to respond to one of the world’s walled gardens letting its people out by building our own wall to keep them in?
