Could we get official word on what Kbin's stance is towards federating with Meta? (kbin.social)

I would like to know if I can feel safe here, or if I should pack it up and start looking elsewhere sooner rather than later.

If the kbin staff have already made there intentions clear, please let me know.

The servers of the fediverse cannot handle the load of facebook. The case is closed before it even begun.

Create your own instance and ask for federation with facebook: Threads won't federate with you. Because they don't know who you are and you did not sign any LEGAL AGREEMENT before you publish on their service through federation. You really think that you can push your content on their servers before you abide to a legal agreement?

You cannot make everything about "your friends". At the end of the day "your friends" use for free an infrastructure worth billions functionning in a legal framework. You didn't think about the business problem and you didn't think about the legal problem.

Then why does Threads advertise ActivityPub support during its onboarding if it's not going to go for ActivityPub?

Can you cite your sources where Meta is forcing people to sign a legal agreement to federate, or are you just going from your gut?

Because activitypub is a buzz word. They will allow access to privileged partners who will sign contracts and legal agreements with them. Certainly not with a bunch of nerds who are here because they hate facebook. he wants us out as much as we want him out.

No I cant. I'm going from my gut. GAFAM are all about laws, that's their only weakness. Did they talk about federating with us anywhere?

If they federate then they will host pedo content day one. Any lawyer of Zuck will warn him about that.
