although this is unlikely to substantially and directly impact us and is a more immediate concern for Mastodon and similar fediverse software, we've signed the Anti-Meta Fedi Pact as a matter of principle. that pact pledges the following:
i am an instance admin/mod on the fediverse. by signing this pact, i hereby agree to block any instances owned by meta should they pop up on the fediverse. project92 is a real and serious threat to the health and longevity of fedi and must be fought back against at every possible opportunity
the maintainer of the site is currently a little busy and seems to manually add signatures so we may not appear on there for several days but here's a quick receipt that we did indeed sign it.
Nice, I got the vibes you'd do that without having to announce it but I'm glad to hear the commitment. Makes it easier to feel better about building connections here knowing they won't be thrown apart when Meta comes to town.
Personally speaking, I like announcements on these kinds of decision because it can show public support for the decision and help us in our conviction. It also allows people that don't agree to find a better place for them.
Definitely agree, I guess I was more just making a point that even without saying anything that's the vibe I was getting from this instance. Which was meant as a compliment. You folks are doing a great job so far 😊
Oh yeah, I didn't mean that I was disagreeing - it would be kinda weird for us to defederate from lemmy.world/sh.itjust.works because of lack of mod tools yet accept to try to moderate people from Facebook's Threads 🤣
I just like it as a vibe check of sort so I thought I'd add that thought!
