For anyone wondering if Threads and Facebook at large will be a fine neighbor in the space and compatible with other apps/services in the fediverse: they’re already automatically hiding comments that mention Pixelfed https://mastodon.social/@dansup/112126250737482807

Choosing a defederated instance might be a good idea...I just signed up here but I'll consider it.

I could also just block the threads.net domain, no? Or would my data still get shipped off to Meta? I'm a little fuzzy on how detailed user account level federation works still.

Nope domain blocking in Lemmy only does anything for communities. Plus blocking on Lemmy isn't even really blocking, it's a more extreme mute function that is deceptively called "block".

I know everyone loves having biases confirmed but we're also not stupid, we know how the internet and evidence works. A random comment getting spam canned means almost nothing.

If this is true it'll be incredibly easy to make a really good case for it which would be a potential news story - however I suspect that it's just a glitch

Do we have a list of instances that have chosen to defederate?

Never mind, found it! Glad to see my Chosen home has blocked them!
