  • The concept as I understand it is that Threads has the sheer volume of content to completely drown out the existing Fedi content if it fully opens the floodgates. If that occurs and say 90% of content becomes Threads and then they start making Threads only extensions to Activity Pub, servers will have to start patching those in and the Activity Pub project is defacto owned by Meta.

    People also have issues with the Meta content moderation and the population on Threads, but as you noted that’s fixable on an individual and community level. The existential threat to the future of the Fediverse is why servers should defederate. Meta can’t and shouldn’t be trusted with any amount of power over this community project.









  • I can only speak to what’s expected in the US.

    For personal info you should include your full legal name, a contact phone number, email, and possibly a link to a portfolio of some kind if that’s expected in your industry (arts, software, design, etc.). No need to put a birth date or any more personal info. If you’re applying to work in another country, I would indicate your nationality and what visas you might have or need to be sponsored for.

    For education, just put the institution, degree, field of study, location, and dates. You can include degree honors there if you have any. Once you have an undergrad degree of some kind, you can remove your high school unless its particularly prestigious.

    After that it should primarily be a list of any work experience, notable projects, skills, and honors/awards.


  • As I understand it, NAT is a firewall with only a very basic configuration: allow all outbound and accept only established inbound. If you don’t expect to have any incoming connections and completely trust all your internal devices then its good enough.

    However, if you start wanting to port forward for servers (SSH, FTP, video games) you need to poke holes in the NAT firewall and it has no additional configuration options to help you. The same goes for if you have internal (ex. IoT) devices that you don’t necessarily trust, there are no rules to block outbound traffic.
