@carnage4life It looks like threads.net is listed here: https://codeberg.org/oliphant/blocklists. Which mas.to seems to base their blocklist off of.

Almost looks like 60-80% of consensus for blocks to appear on that list. Is threads.net already blocked that widely???

I don’t understand how so many people here advocate for the fediverse concept while also blocking servers over literally nothing. threads.net has not fedierated any spam, malicious content or anything negative yet. Way too premature…

"I don’t understand how so many people here advocate for the fediverse concept while also blocking servers over literally nothing."

I don't understand why people don't understand this. Federation is about connecting, yes, but also about not connecting with those one doesn't like. You're basically saying "you guys say you like having choices but you chose differently from me, what's up with that?"

Also, premature? How many genocide enablings, political manipulations, labor abuses, and unethical experiments does it take?

@SallyStrange And what federated content have you seen from threads.net that you don’t like? There’s only like a handful of federated accounts.

I view it as extremely premature. They just started federation yesterday. Yesterday!

Overall tho. I don’t have a problem with server admins making this decision if they are transparent about it. However so far I haven’t seen one concrete federated post that warrants blocking the server. I don’t think that is instilling transparency. (1/2)

@fishcharlie @SallyStrange That same "argument" would apply to instances with names that include slurs, references to child pornography or to violence.

"And what federated content have you seen from map.moe that you don’t like?"

Fuck that. We don't need to wait for obvious bad actors to prove their obvious intentions.

And Meta's intentions are obvious.
