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”.

    extremely weary of any call to arms like this, especially when i am exclaimed to “need” to do something. the block function exists in almost all federated platforms, including the ability to block entire instances; use it and, like META: stop pushing YOUR OWN AGENDA on everyone else.

      Then just use a different server? Facebook has an agenda too and the rest of us would prefer an occasional break from it.

      You personally don’t “need” to do anything but decide which server meets your own standards. We are currently discussing this server’s standards.
