Threadiverse is Facebook trying to copyright the fediverse. Fediverse is open sourced and free as in freedom. I think you meant fediverse.
Also, you didnt reference a post, so i can't verify your claim.
See also https://piefed.social/c/privacy/p/1642848/how-do-we-actually-confront-or-evade-kirkification-and-the-flood-of-ai-slop. It even generated the classic "You're absolutely right" in a comment on that post.
Some people use the term threadiverse to refer to the federated & threaded discussion platforms including Lemmy, Mbin and PieFed.
Here's the post https://piefed.social/c/selfhosted/p/1647421/self-hosting-in-2025-isn-t-about-privacy-anymore-it-s-about-building-resistance-infrast. I was on my phone earlier so jumping around was not so easy then.
Government: Only we can lie! It's illegal when peasants lie!!!
I wish they would take a negative stance on AI... They enjoy trust falling, though, because idiots think they (the government) are a trustworthy source, and they like the resulting situation of easier propaganda.
