threads.net has been preemptively blocked

3 years ago by Illecors to c/general

I have added threads to the blocklist. It does not show up on instance list, yet as I believe the server is simply unreachable due to disabled federation on Threads' end.

As for the reason - I don't feel comfortable providing data to Meta. At the moment Lemmy software is very trusting and every instance syncs quite a bit of data about users from other instances.

Good. Being co-opted by Meta goes against everything the fediverse stands for.

I imagine that it could also get pretty data-heavy if someone subscribed to a large server on threads (assuming it doesn't become another metaverse).
