MODERATORS
It is an update though. When Facebook initially launched Threads, they announced their intent to do this and were met with intense (though not unanimous) backlash from the Fediverse. The Fedipact was launched almost immediately by Fediverse user VantaBlack and has been signed by just under 600 instance administrators (including myself). There was a lot of controversy. Arguments between social activists, tech dweebs, free software developers, and ordinary fucking people who deliberately chose the Fediverse because the monopoly platforms suck. Several op eds were penned at the time. Even Tim Berners Lee commented.
Facebook 'shelved' the plan, but this news reveals their plan was always just to wait until the controversy blows over.
