Lemmy.ml has now blocked threads.net / Meta (lemmy.ml)

It should come as no surprise that the lemmy.ml admin team took about 2 minutes to decide to pre-emptively block threats / Meta. Their transparent and opportunistic scheme to commodify the fediverse and it's users will not be allowed to proceed.

We strongly encourage other instance administrators to do the same, given the grave threat they pose to the fediverse.

I guess I didn't specify well. What I meant was if Mastodon is an ad free (or at least let ads and more private) alternative to view Threads posts, along with Mastodon posts wouldn't that reduce the number of threads accounts and reduce their growth? So wouldn't defederating actually help draw more people to threads? Plus how would defederating reduce the E/E/E process that everyone is worried about? I would think it would accelerate it or best case have no impact...

Also I think I may have replied to the wrong comment lol
