Meta just announced that they are trying to integrate Threads with ActivityPub (Mastodon, Lemmy, etc.). We need to defederate them if we want to avoid them pushing their crap into fediverse.

If you're a server admin, please defederate Meta's domain "threads.net"

If you don't run your own server, please ask your server admin to defederate "threads.net".

Here's a question that I haven't seen asked of people wanting to give them a chance. What will them federating help the fediverse in any way?

We don't want/ need to be bigger
We have plenty of content if you go to hot and find popular communities you like. So much so, that that they want to come here to use it. They currently don't let any threads users communicate with non-threads users unless you leave the app.
They're an advertising company, are we missing the advertising?

If you have things that they could add in a positive way, feel free to add to this.
