There's a common false dichotomy about #Threads: cut them off, or leave it to user choice.

I can't speak to other software, but Mastodon offers a third option: limiting Threads. This can be done for all users of a server.

- You can follow Threads accounts after clicking through a warning.

- You have to manually approve followers _from_ Threads.

Note, however, that boosted posts will continue to appear in your home timeline:
