🚫 Defederation Threads 🚫
As a reaction to the announcement of Meta from yesterday, I have decided to defederate Threads on mountains.social.
The video announcement and the more detailed information on The Verge (https://www.theverge.com/2025/1/7/24338471/meta-hate-speech-hateful-conduct-policy-moderation) made this ultimately an easy decision.
I simply cannot justify to federate with an instance, which explicitly says targeting minority groups is allowed (from which many of them call the Fediverse their home).
I will suspend Threads per Sunday January 19th. This will give people the time to migrate away from mountains.social, without losing connections with Thread users. In case you want to migrate and have issues, I'm happy to assist.

Imagine a stranger spreads lies about you. They tell everyone you're doing horrible stuff, the worst crimes imaginable. They make videos, articles, livestreams, all pushing the same lies designed to make everyone hate and fear you.
Would you "just block them"?
What happens when other people don't block them? When other people believe them, follow them, share their lies?
What if this turns into real life abuse? If someone attacks you or your family?
This is what vulnerable minorities face because of badly-moderated social media:
🙏 Please defederate threads.net or ask your server admin to do so.

Bringing the Warcrawl back thread 1/?
This series of #threads is designed to take others existing works and use those to really help others hit the important stories that can only be told in the context of Roleplaying a character swept up in a war. If a war movie can tell it then many of those same beats can be hit with a leavening helping from what RPG's do best. I blame @hexcrawl for this almost entirely. #Ttrpg #Rpg #hexcrawl #Dungeon crawl #War #Warneverchanges #Dnd

Normalize this
(Updated: I changed Twitter to X and User to Profile. I intentionally left out Bluesky because their approach to profile naming doesn't fit this paradigm and precedent.)

#Threads Threads 说：很快，你将能关注其他联邦宇宙平台（例如 Mastodon）中的用户，并与他们互动。他们也能使用完整帐号查找 Threads 用户，例如 https://www.threads.net/@eallion 。
