@Jupiter Rowland The public stream, if turned on, would only show the public posts. Not the private ones.
I am an entrepreneur, small business owner, author, and researcher. I am also working on an open source project called Neuhub.
I am posting from Hubzilla with Neuhub via ActivityPub.

I was thinking about that the other day. Most fediverse servers won’t even qualify to be federated with Threads. Especially single user instances, since they are unlikely to have a privacy policy for themselves and a public stream.
This is similar to how bridging ActivityPub and AT Protocol would result in more federation for Bluesky, while blocking the bridge would let Bluesky remain (mostly) centralized.
@xigoi The horror!!!
@HeyThisIsntTheYMCA Be careful. Some people might take your dad’s lawyer up on that.
If you thought Twitter’s nonexistent moderation was bad, then get ready for Meta’s moderation.
To be fair, there is no global moderation on the fediverse. Anyone can start up their own instance with their own rules, or lack thereof. But that is also a plus since you or your server administrator decide how to moderate content, rather than depending on the decisions of some mega company’s moderation team.
The interesting thing is that Bluesky might become federated because of bridges to the fediverse. You would be able to federate with Bluesky with a fediverse server.
