And getting worse.
Yup. I’m Bo7a.
And getting worse.
I don’t think I was confusing the defed from blocking, I was confused about what you meant. Thanks for the clarification.
I am given to understand that I will still see the comments from threads users on lemmy. Just not the posts from threads.
Like I said, I don’t care what others do. But for me the correct answer is to not interact with users from that platform.
When I start seeing threads users in .world lemmy comment sections I will block .world.
My pleasure. TMYK!
I’m not comfortable with assuming the dregs of Facebook will leave Lemmy alone. I’ll stick to instances that have defederated and I’ll actively block instances that don’t.
I’m not out here trying to stop you from being on federated instances or anyone else. But I will not personally support instances that allow that monster into the ecosystem.
Fair. But I’m on lemmy for discussion. I don’t want threads’ bobbleheaded userbase fucking up every discussion thread on lemmy. So I will stay on instances that have de-federated that shithole and urge other instances to do the same.
Not quite the same result. Blocking the instance stops you seeing their posts, but not the comments coming from their users.

Are you drunk?
For me it is the wholesale - “Everyone can do this, it is a moral failing on your part that you aren’t already vegan” that irks me.
I have a combination of diseases that mean I could never go vegan, but every single time I have interacted with a vegan online they take the stance that I am lying/wrong and just justifying my choices. Well - My choice is to not die of malnutrition while being tied to a toilet 24/7.
Like yes, random internet vegan - You certainly know my dietary needs better than my doctor and I do…
It may help if you think of it like any old-timey slang. You don’t use it more than once a year, but when IBM/MS/ORACLE/CISCO were using those tactics against open source in the earlier days of the public internet - It was used a lot.
With lemmy being somewhat skewed towards the technically-minded, and older crowd, it is something we used as a general word often enough that to a lot of us it is just another word, and not an obscure abbreviation/initialism.
“Hey google. Start a stopwatch.”
Did you move files to an NTFS shared drive? Proton + ntfs is flaky as all hell in my experience, and the problems are impossible to troubleshoot.
Part of a Ba in Phil. I spent most of my life as a manual labourer and then fell into unix/linux sysadmin. But I read like it is oxygen.
Whew. Top 0.1%!
Now… Where do I put this skill to good use?
I self-host a ton of stuff, and have sailed the high seas for decades to grow my personal collection.
BUT
I pay for YT premium, netflix, and steam, so that my nephews can be on my family plans. Their life can be pretty shitty a lot of the time, and good music, games, and simple distractions help.
Alberta - I love me some mennonites, but they are really into ‘keeping it in the family’.
-Source: Married a mennonite and absconded out of province with her.
Lefty Canuck here - Very willing to admit my country is full of racist pieces of shit. And so is every other country. 30% of the world is made up of trash humans who would fuck over their mother for a dollar, or to get to their destination 10 seconds faster.
I mean… I’m not the OP but I don’t think people against meta/threads fear their idiot userbase. We just don’t want to deal with them. At all. Anywhere.
Or we’d have joined threads.
