Should the Fediverse welcome its new surveillance-capitalism overlords? Opinions differ! If you’re one of the fediverse influencers who sees Threads arrival it as “historic” and “a glimpse of the future” … well, you might want to skip this post.

while we’re at this, some mastodon clients allows you to block domains (there are cases where this is pretty handy) while rest asks you to do that by your server’s web page. wish that’d be a standard feature for all clients.
