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] It wasn't really even close to that. But one I know and really miss seeing in this timeline kind of sucks. But another instance, I got blocked, because... Well I criticized the blind use of block lists, and tried to discuss what can be problematic about that.
That instance has had other cases where blocks have been personal, and knocking connections blindly.
@[email protected] oof. Yeah, I was on Oliphant's Tier 3 blocklist before it got decommissioned with the reason of "Ableist" which is obviously bullshit. I have ADHD and i'm slightly autistic. There's no ableist in me.
They put me on there because I sometimes post AI art.
Which is all fine and dandy, but don't lie!๐คฆโโ๏ธ
@[email protected] I get pissed at people posting AI art, but honestly it's mostly the people who they don't really get why it's problematic.
I keep getting the "transphobic" thing. Which I go, "um what even are you talking about," in part because I am aware it could be that some stuff could come across as transphobic.
Woke up to that today.
I've also had the "ableist" thing as well. The main case, was when I said, "don't assume someone is being malicious..." citing Hanon's Razor.
