Yeah, I was shocked to see it pop up in my mastodon feed this morning. After denying several FOIA requests I figured they'd keep it buried out of spite.

From the linked discussion it looks like there's a new feature rolling out where mods can activate "automatic ban evasion protection" during a ban. Mods don't get given any additional info about the user but it gets set up automatically on the back end.

I have the exact same setup. It works perfectly and integrates really well into home assistant if that's your thing. Getting a coral TPU also makes object detection really easy even on low power hardware.

The concept as I understand it is that Threads has the sheer volume of content to completely drown out the existing Fedi content if it fully opens the floodgates. If that occurs and say 90% of content becomes Threads and then they start making Threads only extensions to Activity Pub, servers will have to start patching those in and the Activity Pub project is defacto owned by Meta.

People also have issues with the Meta content moderation and the population on Threads, but as you noted that's fixable on an individual and community level. The existential threat to the future of the Fediverse is why servers should defederate. Meta can't and shouldn't be trusted with any amount of power over this community project.

It's a specter with a heart bleed.

I tried for a while fighting in my local facebook groups, but it just served to make me mad and didn't put a dent in the constant barrage of nonsense. I started blocking them all and finally just stopped using facebook entirely.

It's sad since those are really the only online groups for my town. I just have no interest in engaging in the local community now.

Re-manifested? To fix it you have to reenable manifest v2. That should be simple for a while but will get more problematic over time.

"Should not be" in an abstract sense, sure. In cold reality, I don't see what other strategy someone has to actually retire. Safer investments don't have anywhere near the same returns.
