I'm not familiar with this blocking threads controversy. Can you EIL5?
Threads big and scary. Smol bois in the Fediverse have been discussing preemptively defederating from Threads due to how big and scary it is in an attempt to protect themselves and the Fediverse as a whole.
Threads is the new Facebook-owned twitter come. It uses the activity pub protocol and is therefore part of the fediverse.
People are concerned that Facebook with embrace the fediverse, enhance it with me features (as they will be the largest developers on the platform) and then either deliberately or because no-one can keep up with their development extinguish it.
