What if Meta’s hidden objective behind the Threads-to-Mastodon initiative is a play on app.net? And, what if threads.net is a measured step towards what could be the greatest pivot in all of tech?

    There’s nothing wrong with the people who use it. It’s their choice. I just don’t want that content in my space.

        It’s my instance and the ones it federates with.

        I can move instance or host my own if I don’t agree with my current ones choices.

                I dont mind, we are letting in a group that has a diffrent culture then ours. The fear is that if

                • we grow too fast
                • there is unreconcilable cultural diffrences
                • or a technological barrier for communication,

                then the smaller side’s culture will get clobbered.

                    Yes theres also a lower bound, the upper bound can and should be as high as it should go but im afraid the biggest hurdle to having safe high growth is the possable culture clash. I fear (educated guess) it will happen and im hoping it wont.

                    Also, from your example, reddit is not exactly the same culture as lemmy and we had a “what habits do you wanna keep (effectively adopt) or drop from reddit” post, stuff like “/s”. Id say overall few issues and should have and ive heard people encourage going as fast as possable but your saying our radicals pushed back.
