If you're a Fediverse admin, this is a plea for you to defederate threads.net
#Threads is part of Meta/Facebook, and their track record on moderation is as horrific as it is possible to be:
The victims of prejudice, violence and genocide cannot "block" attackers that were radicalised online. Victims of bigotry and hatred cannot opt out of being beaten up or murdered.
Please defederate Threads/Meta/Facebook 🙏
Users cant defederate, but can block instances. How do users "PRE block" these instances?
Users can't really block instances unfortunately. All that the user level domain block really does is hide stuff from that you. The bigoted material can still mislead/radicalise other people on your server.
The blocking needs to be done by the server admins for it to have a protective effect.
I dont want to accidentally boost a post from an instance that should be GONE.
Might, but feeling like defending a good thing.

Its not a link.
@kevinrns Maybe because my server is already blocking. Copy/paste it into your search box to see if the profile comes up.
@gunchleoc @tyrannosaurusgirl @FediTips
The server I request mastodon from doesnt see the link
@kevinrns @gunchleoc @FediTips
.scot has threads suspended, that's why it didn't convert to a link. But you should be able to copy and paste it into search.
