The moderation policy changes at Meta are deeply troubling and should be a concern to anyone with a conscience. While the fediverse is a decentralized platform where different service providers have different moderation policies, at mastodon.social, hate speech is prohibited, and we will take action on any Threads account found violating our policies. I would strongly urge anyone with a Threads account to reconsider their alignment with the new direction at Meta and move to Mastodon instead.
@Gargron We really tried and gave them very much the benefit of the doubt to begin with
Unfortunately they threw it all away with that one change so all we can do now is act I guess
As the administrator, do you know how many people had
blocked threads on their own, before your decision?
@FallsMom Nop, that data is not public
@FallsMom **or for admins in this case
Thanks, I was just wondering!
@viralobscurity @FallsMom @stux
Me too. I was horrified when it arrived and blocked it immediately.
@mirandawhiting @FallsMom @stux I've been strongly anti-facebook since the Cambridge Analytica revelations so it was an instant block from me when I started my account here
I have zero tolerance for anything they release and so far, history supports that approach
