MODERATORS
 

Meta just announced that they are trying to integrate Threads with ActivityPub (Mastodon, Lemmy, etc.). We need to defederate them if we want to avoid them pushing their crap into fediverse.

If you're a server admin, please defederate Meta's domain "threads.net"

If you don't run your own server, please ask your server admin to defederate "threads.net".

ActivityPub is a protocol, not a fucking organization. It literally has no agency.

ActivityPub can't license anything. When you identify actual human beings in this conversation, perhaps you might have a point. So far you don't.

First off, calm the hell down. You're being needlessly antagonistic.

Secondly, it seems like the W3C is the publisher of the activity pub standard seems like they ducats what is an isnt compliant.

Seems like of was specifically authored by a team including Evan Prodromou according to the wiki.

If they wanted too, but like literally and open source software, it could have been given licencing requirements

You don't "implement" a license. For fuck's sake could you at least learn the terminology of a domain before spouting opinions on it?!
