Meta just announced that they are trying to integrate Threads with ActivityPub (Mastodon, Lemmy, etc.). We need to defederate them if we want to avoid them pushing their crap into fediverse.
If you’re a server admin, please defederate Meta’s domain “threads.net”
If you don’t run your own server, please ask your server admin to defederate “threads.net”.
If that’s how you want to run your instance, that’s your right to do. But for community-based instances, the users should have some say in the matter.
Yes, I can move to another instance if mine decides to defederate, but that’s a lot of hassle that I’d have to go through because of a decision somebody else made for me, all because they can’t or won’t moderate themselves.

If you don’t like decisions somebody else makes for you, then run your own instance.
This isn’t meant to be snarky, btw, it’s a valid solution and one of the freedoms of the fediverse system.
