Lemmy.ml has now blocked threads.net / Meta
(lemmy.ml)
It should come as no surprise that the lemmy.ml admin team took about 2 minutes to decide to pre-emptively block threats / Meta. Their transparent and opportunistic scheme to commodify the fediverse and it's users will not be allowed to proceed.
We strongly encourage other instance administrators to do the same, given the grave threat they pose to the fediverse.
The fediverse is a space built to escape these corporate profit machines. So you're ok with them invading that space?
Federating with Threads might help the fediverse grow, but Threads has the ability to become the largest instance within it. Then they'll be the ones to defederate from us. After that happens the fediverse will be worse off than if they never joined.
The fediverse is a threat to corporate run social media. Threads joining the fediverse is step one of their inside job to bring it down.
