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.
Nah, you're spot on. Let's keep this simple and not muddy the waters. If it's corporate, it's evil. All you need for a rule of thumb. There may be rare instances when this isn't the case, but I've yet to see one that lasted for long. Let's be real here, corporation's raison d'être is increasing shareholder value and dividends - inherently and inevitably incompatible with the common good.
