@FinchHaven @notroot@bostonsocial.online @tchambers @fediversenews It seems like we've entered a new phase where it no longer makes sense to talk about preemptive blocking like Threads is a mystery box. Threads is out there as an existing thing. I think it would be reasonable for mastodon.social and other big instances to condition federation upon removal of Libs of Tik Tok and accounts with similar track records.
@misc @FinchHaven @notroot @tchambers @fediversenews Absolutely. As long as LoT and the like are on Threads, it's a nazi-haven instance (aka a nazi instance) and should be treated as such for making federation decisions.
