I wonder how many people we're gonna lose over this, because I for one, spent time blocking what I wanted to, to curate my feed, and it took time. I already migrated once, I'm not gonna do it again because some people can't realize how toxic it's going to be when they federate with us.

I see a lot of people saying they'll just switch instances but haven't seen anyone say they'll just jump ship, am I alone ? Or maybe I'm missing an option that would allow me to transfer all my settings from one instance to another ?

Then you can block threads yourself, as a user. It's as easy as that. Blocking threads on the entire instance makes it so admins are curating content for users. You don't get a choice when an instance defederates, you do when it federates. Defederation is a last resort, not a panic kneejerk reaction.

Learn how the tool works before.

If you block an instance, u can still interract with the users (with the new features), and they can comment posts on others instances and yours, and you will see them.

You will just don't see the Thread specific content.

You are the jerk here

Great job insulting me. I can perfectly fine block people from a specific instance and not see their posts or comments at all.
