I think it's pretty safe to say that the majority of us are here to avoid another corporate takeover of our preferred platforms. It would seem to me to be a tad irresponsible to allow Facebook into our space with open arms, allowing them to hoover up our data. I would love to keep using Lemmy.world, but will happily change instances if need be, and I feel many share that sentiment.

I will be leaving if lemmy.world defederates with threads.

Just give users the ability to block instances themselves so we can be done with this.

Stop letting other people make decisions for you.

I read the users can blacklist instances already, from the latest Lemmy release note.

Yeah, looks like it's in 0.19

I can't see it myself, because my instance is still on 0.18

I've heard this, but haven't seen it explained how to do it.
