So here I am sitting on lemmy.ml which is defederated from threads (and which I chose primarily for that reason) and I see a comment from the user above.
That comment is on a community at lemmy.world, and the user is apparently registered with their @threads username through @sh.itjust.works.
IIRC .world does NOT respect the fedipact, and I guess this means sh.itjust.works must not either, but I’m super confused by the username.
So I guess I still need to just block all the threads users I see, defederation or not?
It’s a different colour, so it’s just what that user has set as their display name.
Some good trolling they did out there lol
Yep… and that’s a blockin’ anyhow.
Seriously…
They’re not the only one: https://lemmy.ml/search?type=Users&q=%40threads
AnnaWright@threads.net@sh.itjust.works @y@threads.net@gleasonator.com masta0f1eave@threads.net@akkoma.cryptoschizo.club Soma@threads.net@detroitriotcity.comThanks!
This is why every frontend needs an option to disable display names. This and the emoji and zalgotext.
@octopus_ink Someone has entered their threads handle as their username.
Thanks!
I know this has been solved already but for the record sh.itjust.works has also defederated from Threads
Thanks for clarifying that!
That’s a good jest
Unfortunately OP has no humour
That’s actually very funny
