I might not be understanding something about the fediverse, but isn’t this like if you couldn’t send or receive email from a friend because you use gmail Google decided to block @icloud domains?
Like, you’re not forced to follow or interact with it, and are free to block it if you can think of a reason to, I just don’t see why such an open platform used to limit users in this way
Lots of people love to defederate anything at the drop of a hat.
That’s it.
In reality, threads and lemmy aren’t even the same type of thing and are unlikely to intersect on a regular basis, in the same way you don’t see many posts from mastodon or pleroma.
One thing I find funny about the whole thing is meta is a bunch of corpos, so it isn’t that hard to just get them to defederate from you if you’re willing to grow a spine. My network is blocked, and I believe it’s because I called the maintainer of fediblock a nazi gestapo a bunch of times and demanded they add my site to their list of wrongthinkers or I’d call them doubleplus ungood, thus getting on a list that mindless drones use because it’s easier to just follow orders, regardless of where those orders come from.
lol
