My current philosophy with this community is to let it live and self-regulate. I only want to poke at it when things (start to) feel off.

So if threads federates properly and people make use of this functionality then I see no problem with that. So far I haven’t blocked any federation. The only blocks in place are technical ones to figure off some spam bots.

This way of thinking won’t scale properly, but my goals aren’t to create the next big social media platform. The goal is as stated in the tagline of this instance: a home for musically minded people. Anything that harms that goal will be dealt with, anything that supports that goal will be welcomed with open arms.

So only if it becomes a problem and people complain about this problem will I enforce a technical limitation.

thanks for taking the time and effort to write this response. my knee jerk reaction is "meta bad unga bunga 😡" but i like your take. it's measured.

also i wanted to share how i was relieved when discovering that waveform was federated with most. i signed up with beehaw at first, and though i like it, waveform feels like a place i can call e-home

I'm glad to hear that 😊
