Can someone give me an easy to understand example of what they are proposing? Assume that I don’t allow them to install any software/tool that helps them track me/my device.

I saw this comment and found it helpful but its still not clear to me

At its core, it establishes software components called "attesters" that decide whether your device and/or browser is "trustworthy" enough - as defined by the website you are trying to visit. Websites can enforce which "attesters" users must accept, simply by denying everybody access who refuses to bow down to this regime; or who uses attesters that are deemed "inappropriate"; or who is on a platform that does not provide any attesters the website finds "acceptable".

In short: it is specifically designed to destroy the open web by denying you the right to use whatever browser you want to use, on whatever operating system. It is next-level "DRM", introduced by affiliates of a company that already has monopolized the browser market. And the creators of this "proposal" absolutely know what they are attempting here.

While looking good on desktop (based on screenshots), it is definitely not designed for mobile. See below

What if I don’t want to post on lemmy.world anymore, because I don’t want Threads to benefit from my posts/comments.

I want people to come to Lemmy for its contents. Why would Threads users join Lemmy if they can subscribe to our communities instead?

Wow they banned the OP of that post 3 years from that community for misinformation. Do they have proof that it is misinformation?

Banned

@booty_flexx from the community Fediverse reason: Misinformation expires: in 3 years

I could not find that post being removed from modlog. There were other removed posts but not that particular one

Whats the point of modlog if it does not record everything for auditing purpose?

You made me realise I asked the wrong question. It’s all about Threads. I updated the title and my question. Thank you

As seen on my other comments, I want Lemmy to grow so we can have diverse communities and diverse viewpoints. Why would Threads users join Lemmy if they can just subscribe to instances federating with them. That is why I don’t want to post on instances federating with Threads anymore

I also don’t want Threads to benefit from my posts/comments

Would you still post to lemmy.world or you would create another community on lemmy.ml where Threads is blocked, if you were in my case?

Do you know exactly what Discord track?

Not OP but I am still waiting for my data request from a few weeks ago!

No. Only banned from a community called ![email protected] on lemmy.world instance only. At least that’s what I guessed it was

They will federate with Threads. If I continue posting on lemmy.world, Threads will benefit from it and Threads users would never join Lemmy because they could subscribe to our communities. But I also don’t want to split my niche communities

Is there a way to see why a post was deleted?

Mammoth has a For You tab and I found it quite useful

Its in their FAQ

But how do/will you make money?

We are not prepared to begin charging for usage of Anytype while the app is still in beta, and we rely on our community not to take advantage of the free storage that’s currently offered.

When we do begin to charge, our principles are as follows:

Users should be charged only for the resources they consume. That means that in the short term, we will charge for paid backups of spaces above a certain storage limit. This limit has not been determined, as we still need to understand the true load and cost of hosting spaces on our infrastructure.

In the medium term, our goal is to evolve from an app into a digital cooperative in which you can pay to become a member. Membership comes with benefits such as the ability to publish objects and spaces under a name of your choosing, discoverability in the Any ecosystem, and the right to participate in the earnings of the cooperative based on your contributions.

I thought I made my question clear

Should I continue contributing to my niche communities on Instances I do not share my view with, or build similar communities on other Instances?

For example runeterra community only exists on lemmy.world, but I don’t want to post on lemmy.world anymore, because I don’t want Threads to benefit from my posts/comments. I want people to come to Lemmy.

Should I create a new runeterra community lemmy.ml instead (lemmy.ml blocks Threads)? What would you do?

I wish Lemmy provided ability to transfer ownership of posts/comments too. With subscriptions I can easily manually do it myself

Yes its so you can use any mastodon account

Sorry I asked the wrong question. I’ve updated it. My question should have been specific to Threads federation. You can see my clarifie point of view in another comment

Would this change your answer

Looks like someone created a pull request (a code submit) for iOS client last month then conversation stopped

According to Lemmy documentation, if they don't block a server, it means they are federating (aka talking using ActivityPub protocol) with that server.

Lemmy has three types of federation:

• Allowlist: Explicitly list instances to connect to.
• BlockList: Explicitly list instances to not connect to. Federation is open to all other instances.
• Open: Federate with all potential instances.

Federation is enabled by default.

It means Meta could in theory talking right now with instances not blocking them as part of their testing.

I don't know why they could not just block in the first place, then unblock/allow later if it makes sense.

where does it say Brave has a tracker?

this said it has none https://reports.exodus-privacy.eu.org/en/reports/com.brave.browser/latest/

Meta started working with ActivityPub working group already
