It's really interesting to see the two sides of the coin. People are extremely passionate on both sides. I didn't think people on the side of "in favor of federating with Threads" were just as passionate.
I think most people are tired of others making choices for them, rather than explicitly being in favor of federating with Threads.
But we are making the decision together. Look at all the conversations we're having. Your confusing "not having a choice" with "learning to except majority opinion"
Trust me, the people in charge of the instances aren't defederating because of their personal opinion. They are listening to us and making choices on what the majority feels.
I didn't say "not have a choice" though. I said people are likely tired of others making the choice for them, whether it be minority or majority. Especially when individual choice is possible.
