I really want to nip threads in the bud. Besides blocking threads.net itself, defederate from any instances that do not. This is blatantly an EEE strategy and a united front is the only way to save what have been accomplished. Here is how Indivudals can do it on mastodont as an example to follow. https://hachyderm.io/@crowgirl/110663465238573628 Edit found this , https://fedipact.online/ please sign.

It stops the extension, and puts pressure on other instances. They now need to choose between federation with Meta or the rest of the fediverse. It also adds pressure to activity pub devs to not accept merge requests from Meta. Meta's strategy is likely to create some deliberately created merge requests that’ll break fediverse but Threads will have the right back end to handle those requests properly. Suddenly you’ll have “threads has this cool feature and mastodon is constantly struggling with errors, go to threads!” articles.
