Threads has begun testing federation over ActivityPub. And they have blocked two important servers I administrate. The first server is the Mostr Bridge. The Mostr Bridge connects ActivityPub and Nostr together, so people can communicate across protocols. The second server is Spinster.xyz, which is arguably the largest independent feminist community online.
That’s the real value prop of the fediverse. My masto presence is a single user instance, and for a whopping $9 a month, I am not forced to see any content I’d prefer not to.
I am beholden to my hosting, whose values and general business model I did a bit of due diligence on before signing up to be sure they aligned with mine.

So much simpler to enjoy the experience this way.
