What a lame take.
Go to their server if you want to or one that don't defederate, or spin one up yourself, the choice is still yours.
I don't want meta to benefit from my server, hosting their biased crap, how about that for a user choice.
It's your freedom as an admin to block them, but indeed the cost is the freedom of your users to communicate with people on Threads. As a user I would prefer an instance that doesn't restrict my communications in that way.
Freedom isn't letting everything be or letting anyone do anything. That's anarchy.
When meta kills off 99% of Lemmy servers because they can, where's your "freedom"?
I only talked about communicating with Threads users not "anything".
Why should Meta be able to do this?
