Well, since Threads users can now see replies to their posts from Fediverse users AND they're public, I think it's as good a time as any to ask this again.
Have you blocked Threads?
This is for single users. If you're an admin that has blocked it for your entire instance, it's okay to answer as well, but I would like any users of those instances to also answer yes and for those that do not agree with that decision reply below with your thoughts, please!
Thanks!
PS. This is not a debate. I'm not looking for reasons why Threads should be blocked. Those types of replies will be completely ignored. We all know the pros and cons by now.

@[email protected] why should we block threads? the posts in the fediverse are public - anyone can read them with an rss reader - so there's no point...
@[email protected] some are worried about getting harassed. LGBTQ folks are among some I've seen that are worried.
@[email protected] stupid people find always a way to harass others - and the fediverse has the same insane user as twitter facebook etc …
@[email protected] yes, but moderation on the smaller instances is way better because of the small userbase compared to Threads with 200m+ that I can imagine is harder to moderate, even for a bigger company, things slip through and I understand not wanting to be called slurs because of your sexual preference/race/religion etc.
It's their choice after all. All I can do is listen and respect their decision.🤷♂️
@[email protected] yes - i will not block it but i am admin from a single user instance 🤣🤣 and yes i dont see the point of blocking…. but perhaps i am playing this social media game too long and have a thik skin 🤣🤣
