For anyone wondering if Threads and Facebook at large will be a fine neighbor in the space and compatible with other apps/services in the fediverse: they’re already automatically hiding comments that mention Pixelfed https://mastodon.social/@dansup/112126250737482807

What a weak thing for such a big company to do. Censor the mention of an open source competitor that almost no one uses.

It's like combat, companies like this see it as necessary to take every protective step possible, they have an inferior product so manipulation is the only way to maintain their monopoly

I think it's a lot more common than most people would realize. Capitalism hates talking about things that let's normal people do things for free.

That's why we as regular people need to spread the word as effectively as possible.

If something is not on the radar it doesn't exists. That's why MSM doesn't want to talk about some topics.
