Because Meta is a threat to the Fediverse and we should block everything they create or try to. They want to destroy this place.
They got 70m users in a few days. Mastodon has a few million after a year. I don't think Meta cares about us at all!
Oh care just enough to see us squashed.
Or...not at all.
Except:
Why would you want an administrator to make those decisions on your behalf?
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:
https://fedipact.veganism.social/
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.
