    I don’t want ads getting federated to my instance.

    There’s not any room for philosophical debate on that point for me.

    There’s a lot of other reasons to not federate with Threads, but that one is the only one I need to cite to realistically appeal to literally any and all fediverse users with at least a couple neurons in their skulls. And it’s definitely the only argument I need to cite to an instance admin who’s running a lemmy container on their home server.

      Ads are the absolute least problematic thing about Meta.

      Unmoderated content, a literal firehose of absolute vile stuff is my biggest fear.

        Oh, for sure. But you missed part of what I was saying.

        Regardless of where you fall on the political ideological spectrum or how you use social media - or really, anything else about you - I’m pretty confident that nobody wants to have ads force fed to them, so that’s a very easy point to unify on.
