On version 0.19 you can block instances so that you don’t see any posts from that instance, instead of having to block communities one by one, you still see comments from users of that instance in other posts so it isn’t completely blocking the instance.
According to https://fedipact.veganism.social/?v=2, lemmy.world is federated.
Thanks for sharing. I’ll be voicing my opposition in hopes that it contributes to changing that status.
According to a post by one of the LW admins in mastodon, they won’t think about defederating unless it causes them “trouble”
Well let’s hope massive outrage by the majority of their userbase falls into the category of “trouble” then.
Except i genuinely don’t see their being massive outrage, as the user can block the instance so why would they need to defederate?
Blocking the instance does not stop Threads comments from being displayed on any federated instance.
Even if a user blocks Threads, they will still be exposed to misinformation and hateful, extremist comments/users.
