@Gargron @mosseri I admire your excitement, yet I feel they just treat #fedi as yet another place to spread ads. I've already muted that "instance".

@x @Gargron That seems like the idea, if it wasn't why would their test be one-way pushing to the fediverse, as opposed to open federation.

It's obviously to push garbage in our faces and I'm glad I'm on an Instance that defederates from them preemptively. Even if I wasn't though I'd still block them and encourage anyone else who isn't brainwashed to do the same as well.

@x @Gargron @mosseri The screenshot I saw, each Threads post had a "View on Threads" button on it. This allows them to play games with dark patterns, something Facebook is famous for.

So each Threads posts will be like an ad for Threads, and many people won't realize it. The effect may be to suggest those posts can only be viewed properly in Threads. Such dark patterns should be met with #fediblock.
