@trumpet please stop blocking threads so that I can follow and boost @POTUS@threads.net

This policy of blocking entire instances simply because you don't like who runs them is silly and detrimental to the Fediverse not to mention our democracy.

@schizanon @trumpet isn't the whole point of this place that you can switch instances to somewhere that doesn't block Threads?

@guades @trumpet here I thought that the point of this place was that everyone wouldn't have to use a particular website to talk to each other.

If I wanted to move my whole identity everytime some weird guy had a shitty opinion I would have stayed on Twitter/Facebook

@schizanon@mas.to it’s not just anyone though it’s literally Facebook

@wyre Facebook users are not Facebook.

@schizanon @trumpet Your best bet with this will likely to be to move to another Mastodon / Fedi instance that does not block Threads.

fedipact.veganism.social/ is a list of a lot of servers and if they federate, limit or fully block Threads.

Worth saying things may change and instances currently blocking may un-block and instances that don't currently block may move to blocking.

fedipact.veganism.social#Fedipact - The instances blocking Zuckerberg's Threads.netAn interactive list to see which ActivityPub (Matodon, Lemmy, FireFish, etc) instances are federating with Threads.net

@schizanon@mas.to @trumpet@mas.to we're starting to see why the decision to block threads is a difficult one once federation is actually widespread. Many accounts people find important to have access to get blocked when it is done at the instance level. It was definitely smart for #fedipact to move on this early since a decision that's already been made is harder to reverse.

The good news is that you can always migrate if the instance doesn't make the choices you want.

@vetehinen @trumpet I did, this is now my burner account

@schizanon
Its actually a big part of the fediverse. If you do disagree with policy its pretty easy to port your account to another server that does federate, like hostux.social
@trumpet

@Fu @trumpet "actually" is a big part of the fediverse and it sucks too

@schizanon This has nothing to do with who runs Threads, I’ve posted a few times before on the technical and moderation concerns we have.

We’re looking into how we can protect users who don’t want to federate while allowing those who do. The solution will likely be to limit Threads, while enabling authorised fetch on the server so that user-level blocks will be more rigid. I hope to post more on this soon.

@trumpet you gonna do it before November, or let Trump win?

@schizanon Whatever we do it would be before November ☺️
