The photos are my own work. (boosts excepted of course) I hope you enjoy some of them. I'm well down the road of de-googling etc and use open-source software where feasible with privacy a priority, but still have a way to go. I block racists, spammers, and hate mongers. I prefer 'boosts' to 'favorites' . Please follow if you are cool with the above. #nobridge

not an instance admin? you can still block threads!!!

do note, however, that it won't be as effective as an instance-level block on a technical level (your data will still be sent to meta, etc.)

How to block Threads on Mastodon - and a reminder that blocking on the fediverse only provides limited protections (UPDATED)

With screenshots!

Since mastodon.world has shamelessly federated with Meta, I'll be moving my stuff to mas.to and deleting my presence here. If you'd like a list of Meta federated/unfederated instances to choose from, there's one here https://fedipact.veganism.social/?ref=privacy.thenexus.today

p.s. A few responses to points people raised:

- Meta still as bad as ever, links above are from 2021, 2022, 2023.

- It's not "few bad apples", problems are right at the top, e.g. Zuckerberg said in 2018 Holocaust denial should be permitted on Facebook (https://www.theverge.com/2018/7/18/17587080/mark-zuckerberg-holocaust-denial-kara-swisher-interview)

-Meta memo leaked in 2016 said people would die but company should carry on regardless (https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/ryanmac/growth-at-any-cost-top-facebook-executive-defended-data#.upw3jdyR8).

- People saying "wait and see". Do you really need to see more like this? https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2021/dec/06/rohingya-sue-facebook-myanmar-genocide-us-uk-legal-action-social-media-violence

Mark Zuckerberg says Holocaust deniers are making an honest mistake

In a podcast interview, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg recommitted to providing a platform for misinformation. Facebook will continue to offer a platform to Holocaust deniers, Infowars, and other publishers of hoaxes on the assumption that they are sincere in their beliefs, Zuckerberg said.

Is there a list somewhere of open #mastodon instances that have defederated threads.net?
