Thank god we have people like you who can predict the future. Tell me will this next revolution starve those people before or after carbon emissions collapse our food chain?

That still leaves over 80% in other industries. Though I’ll admit dialing back ones meat consumption is advisable anyway, if only for health reasons, blaming meat consumption on anti-veganism is naive. For me personally it’s about texture and taste and not somebody telling me that eating salad leads to deficiencies. Until real alternatives, not some crappy beyond meat soy proteins, emerge and are affordable, nothing will change on that front

Edit: phrasing

Scraping sites to gain information and spinning a web of interaction and activity are 2 different things. If your fine with Meta having this data easily available that’s on you. No one stops you from signing up with their services but most people here want to distance themselves from huge corporations and their shenanigans

It’s a “flaw” of the fediverse in general not about private data. As soon as two instances are federated and users interact with eachother, information like posts, comments, votes etc are shared

I know interoperability between email providers is often used to make the concept of federation more aproachable but other than that they are totally different systems.

Your sent emails aren’t published and not everyone with an email server can track your activity. Unlike lemmy if it connects to threads

How so many people seem to brush this off is beyond me. As far as I’m concerned the purpose of federated, decentralized services is being in charge of who to trust and huge corporations not controlling or monitoring every part of your online activity.

Obviously as soon as Meta starts dealing with ActivityPub and Fediverse, the overwhelming majority of users will flock to their servers. They will be more userfriendly and responsive. In effect they will also hold the overwhelming majority of content and data. Just a matter of time till most of the other instances will become obsolete, due to bandwith regulations or smth similar,

The fediverse will be rebranded as the “Threadiverse”
