🚫 Defederation Threads 🚫
As a reaction to the announcement of Meta from yesterday, I have decided to defederate Threads on mountains.social.
The video announcement and the more detailed information on The Verge (https://www.theverge.com/2025/1/7/24338471/meta-hate-speech-hateful-conduct-policy-moderation) made this ultimately an easy decision.
I simply cannot justify to federate with an instance, which explicitly says targeting minority groups is allowed (from which many of them call the Fediverse their home).
I will suspend Threads per Sunday January 19th. This will give people the time to migrate away from mountains.social, without losing connections with Thread users. In case you want to migrate and have issues, I'm happy to assist.

Here are some of the horrible things that you can now say on Instagram and Facebook
Meta’s policy changes around hate speech have sharply changed the content that’s banned or allowed when it’s based on gender, sexual orientation, and the coronavirus.Richard Lawler (The Verge)

You can move almost everything, but your old posts is one of the things that can't be migrated at the moment.
