@tinyrabbit@floss.socialI don’t know why Meta haven’t been public about this, but you can now hide any of your posts from Threads users by just adding the word ”pixelfed” anywhere in it. Nice to give the option to opt out so easily, but a somewhat strange way to do it and a very random choice of keyword imho.
EDIT: Jeebus Crabst, everyone. This blew up again, and the context might be forgotten by now.
There was a misconception that Threads blocked posts about pixelfed, and this was a joke about that.
(Explaining the joke to peeps who’re out of the loop:
Meta is censoring their competition, Pixelfed, an instagram-like fediverse site.
Not sure if it’s really happening:
Various people have tried to recreate the same situation with their Threads accounts, and their comments are still publicly available

@Sandra @tinyrabbit No shit? Who could have guessed?
What a flabbergasting news! I am totally flabbergasted.
