I asked and enough of you answered that allowing to federate with threads.net even for the lolz would be considered too risky for y'all.
So I've gone ahead and added threads.net to our blocklist.
the fediverse blocking off people who want to join it seems odd. Like, we want the fediverse to be a thing so that everything can talk to everything else and the content itself can be king without having to worry too much about where that content lives.
Not me. I wanted something free from multibillion dollar corporations. And people aren't blocked off. They don't even need an account to view content or an app. And they aren't blocked from creating a non meta affiliated account if they want to participate.
