A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

the way i see it is the fediverse is email and threads is gmail. it's why i never understood why there was such a push by some to automatically defederate from threads before it even launched. threads is probably the best chance that the fediverse has to become mainstream, even if people using threads don't even know they're on the fediverse.
See Eternal September.
As an example, if Reddit decided to implement activitypub and federate with Lemmy, 99.9% of the content would now be coming from reddit users and you'd basically never see anything else. At that point, why not just go back to Reddit?
thats not really different than the majority of traffic on mastodon being mastodon.social.
