Why are they fighting to have Truth Social pollute our federation?

smileyhead ,

No no, Truth Social doesn't need to federate. They want it to pushing it's source code as AGPL legally obligates it to.

the tl;dr is: he asked nicely for the source code and they gave it to him?

It's a shame they don't embrace federation and open source more, the drama it would create would be fun at least.

They’re trying to build their own segregated social media community. I think federation is literally the last thing they want to do.

There are good reasons not to federate, Legality is kinda murkey when it comes to stuff like this. Federation could (not saying it would) be used as a weapon against them. I mean, there are all sorts of instances on the federated networks, many of which do not comply with US law. Not just the real shitty stuff, But even instances that just don't care about DMCA for instance. It could simply be that Federation is just way too much of a hassle, which I really couldn't blame them. I did try to host my own federated service instance and it was just kinda too much.

If you want drama, then federate with Threads 🤷

nah, there are plenty of truth wannabes (freeze peach bigotry safe havens) that actively federate. just look at literally any competent server's blocked instances list and you'll see a few examples. there's a reason why nobody* runs completely open federation

*: aside from people who're friendly with that crowd ofc

From the end of the blogpost @ (https://boehs.org/node/truth-social): "Once again, this was absolutely not the outcome I expected. Some people might be disappointed by it. I might be relieved. After I sent that email, I was a little worried about what I was getting myself into. The Truth Social Legal Team. Imagine. But it went my way. The real takeaway is that you do have power. Don’t be scared of the big guys. Speak their language, play on their court. Stand up for what you believe in. You can win. Finally, I want to thank Truth Social for complying appropriately. While we couldn’t be further apart politically, I respect that they followed the law in a timely manner without a fight."
