@dansup Leaving the choice up to the users is nothing to apologize for. You did the right thing, fuck the haters.

@dansup It seems to me that you're making the right decision about federating with Threads: give them a chance, and give tools to Pixelfed's users to control interaction.

Maybe your communication could have been better, but you certainly don't deserve any abuse for that.

@dansup
There are no easy decisions here. There is no single correct solution. We are all just muddling your way through things.

@dansup Hi I see no reason for you to apologise to anyone. You created Pixelfed and have run Pixelfed.social very well from my perspective. It’s no doubt a controversial topic and people on both sides of the debate feel strongly in their position. Can’t argue against democracy (mostly!) but I’m content with your decisions/explanations so far. If after a discussion those who dislike/cannot accept the decision of the community can choose to move to another instance. The beauty of the Fediverse!
