Periodic reminder:
Your parents probably taught you from a young age not to take gifts from strangers, right?
So, why do you blindly accept now "free" services from companies online?

        Threads changed it's terms of service, going into effect on May 28th.

        It references "The Protocol" a LOT. In this case, it has to be the Fediverse.

        More interoperability coming soon?🤔

            I have to agree here, as far as I know hasn’t invented much of anything, but to be fair, doesn’t so much invent totally new products as they usually improve and iterate upon existing technologies. Apple does indeed keep their “walled garden” fairly well locked down, but in my opinion that’s why the garden is worth spending time in. I don’t have time to maintain a garden myself and Apple’s garden aligns with my sensibilities, it works for me that they (mostly) keep out the weeds.

              An important distinction is slowly being uncovered about the definition of the term "fediverse." Who is it that gets to decide what this place is? How are we being represented? These are not easy questions to answer and if we don't do a better job describing ourselves, then the job will get done for us by people who don't understand the underlying values we hold.
