I might not be understanding something about the fediverse, but isn't this like if you couldn't send or receive email from a friend because you use gmail Google decided to block @icloud domains?

Like, you're not forced to follow or interact with it, and are free to block it if you can think of a reason to, I just don't see why such an open platform used to limit users in this way

There’s really no good reason for users to want to defederate from a Facebook owned instance.

Yeah why would anyone object to a company that manipulated people for the fascist who tried to overthrow the US government, and recently hired a co-author of Project 2025? 'You just don't like it!'

That's a reson to not subscribe or participate, not defederate.

Fascism being something individuals politely turn down. Right? No consequences what-so-ever from letting that shit spread by default.

I can see why people here don't want 175 millions Threads monthly active users to upvote and downvote content in Lemmy communities
