how long until threads threatens to or actually does start blocking mastodon.social for allowing nudity?

would dot social bend the knee in that scenario and change their policy? probably

#FediPact #meta #threads

Post photos and videos that are appropriate for a diverse audience. We know that there are times when people might want to share nude images that are artistic or creative in nature, but for a variety of reasons, we don’t allow nudity on Instagram. This includes photos, videos, and some digitally-created content that show sexual intercourse, genitals, and close-ups of fully-nude buttocks. It also includes some photos of female nipples, but photos in the context of breastfeeding, birth giving and after-birth moments, health-related situations (for example, post-mastectomy, breast cancer awareness or gender confirmation surgery) or an act of protest are allowed. Nudity in photos of paintings and sculptures is OK, too. People like to share photos or videos of their children. For safety reasons, there are times when we may remove images that show nude or partially-nude children. Even when this content is shared with good intentions, it could be used by others in unanticipated ways. You can learn more on our Tips for Parents page.
Sexually explicit or violent media must be marked as sensitive or with a content warning This includes content that is particularly provocative even if it may not show specific body parts, as well as dead bodies, bloody injuries, and other gore. Particularly obscene content may be prohibited entirely. Profile pictures and header images may not contain sexually explicit or violent media.

"every single terrible thing you see on facebook — be it some sort of horrible right wing nonsense or a confusing and annoying product decision — is made in pursuit of growth. every bit of damage that meta has caused to the world has been either an act of ignorance or deliberate harm"

threads is paying people to post with their "bonus program" and yes ofc it's scummy lmao

The Threads bonus is an invite-only bonus program that lets you earn money on your Threads content... Based on the performance [and] number of posts you create.

is this really the vibe we want them bringing to the fediverse???

Why Meta is looking to the fediverse as the future for social media

“You could imagine an extension to the protocol eventually — of saying like, ‘I want to support micropayments,’ or … like, ‘hey, feel free to show me ads, if that supports you.’ Kind of like a way for you to self-label or self-opt-in. That would be great,” Cottle noted, speaking casually. Whether or not Meta would find a way to get a cut of those micropayments, of course, remains to be seen.

hey @Gargron what are your thoughts on FediPact?

FediPact, 2 months ago to FediPact

why should we federate with them when...

"extreme anti-trans hate content remains widespread across instagram, facebook, and threads. characterized by fear-mongering, lies, conspiracy theories, dehumanizing tropes, and violent rhetoric, these posts — many by high-follower accounts — aim to boost engagement, generate revenue, and seed hateful narratives about trans, nonbinary, and gender non-conforming people. these accounts profit from such hate, and so does meta and its shareholders"

she fedi on my pact til i defederate threads

FediPact, 2 months ago to FediPact

REMEMBER:

1. fedipact signatures are vetted and added manually whenever i feel up to it, give me time lmao
2. messaging me on my main account and asking me to add you IS NOT A SIGNATURE. i will do my best to bookmark it and try to remember, but i will probably forget. PLEASE use the cryptpad form unless you are literally unable to. i try to keep fedipact stuff separated from my regular account because it stresses me out lol

not an instance admin? you can still block threads!!!

do note, however, that it won't be as effective as an instance-level block on a technical level (your data will still be sent to meta, etc.)

FEDI PACT FUN FACT

if you're wondering why i didn't choose a more appropriate domain for https://fedipact.online

it's because i only had like $2 in my bank account when i was setting everything up lmao 😂

i picked what was cheap but relatively appropriate

@FediPact @vantablack @nm Hi, sorry to bother you — it looks like social.lol has been incorrectly listed on both https://fedipact.online and https://fedipact.veganism.social. The person who signed the pact meant well but they’re not an admin/owner and can’t really speak for the social.lol instance. I’m sorry for the confusion and I appreciate your help in correcting the error. Thanks!

video from the "Meta and Reddit prove the social web is over" episode of the vergecast where they talk about fedipact and say it's all just a bunch of "dude nerds" trying to keep women out because "no girls allowed"
