Except:

  • how do you decide what company is a threat and what company isn't?
  • the users that consider Meta already a threat can block Threads themselves

Why would you want an administrator to make those decisions on your behalf?

[–] Kichae@kbin.social 10 points 1 year ago

The users who don't consider Meta a threat can find a server that won't block them. Or start their own.

Admin's website, admin's rules.

I think it sends a good message. That we don't want your corporate garbage at all. From the top down.

This will give you a good idea of which Mastodon instances will federate with Threads:

Just create an account at one of the instances that will federate and you're all set.

It's less effort for me to go out and block garbage. If they start blocking stuff I don't want blocked I can either migrate or work on selfhosting.
