We still have two weeks to go. Don't jinx it.

Sync between devices. I only read RSS on one device so I don't need it either. Besides if you don't think a service is useful to you why do you host it?

You could seed the Torrents by the internet archive.

This didn't happen. In fact Google was the one who fell behind development when the protocol moved on and deprecated unencrypted connections for example. People just don't make it a priority to use XMPP instead of the walled gardens they are using now.

Then it must have gotten a lot better in the meantime then. I discovered it ~2020 while searching for alternatives to WhatsApp and realizing that other walled gardens cannot be the answer since they have the same problem as WhatsApp. I think we should revive the idea of an universal internet standard for instant messaging.

Freedom isn’t letting everything be or letting anyone do anything.

I only talked about communicating with Threads users not "anything".

When meta kills off 99% of Lemmy servers

Why should Meta be able to do this?

XMPP works great, you just have to use it. It doesn't invalidate anything.

Why? It works great for me and my contacts. I use it for all my personal messaging.

XMPP works great on mobile devices today. Google could have easily developed and published such extensions themselves.

It's your freedom as an admin to block them, but indeed the cost is the freedom of your users to communicate with people on Threads. As a user I would prefer an instance that doesn't restrict my communications in that way.
