I only partly live under a rock, so I've now heard that the Facebooks is making Threads, and it'll talk to Mastodon.

Any idea how to keep them from taking over? Apparently, you're a weirdo these days if you use Firefox, Brave/Qwant, and trust FLOSS > proprietary.

Defederating is something at least. But in reality like all societal problems stemming from late stage capitalism, the only true answers are extremely illegal

Who said we're in late stage capitalism? If you ask the libertarians, we've been out of any sincere capitalism since WWII.

Yeah but we should probably ask people who actually know what's going on instead
