Yay censorship
Yay ban evasion?
Sorry if that's not you, see you soon if it is.

And much like Barney above, they'll keep coming back.
I love how people check these kinds of things on here
Your lack of arguments prompts you to post something completely unrelated to the post. I believe you would call this ad hominem or whatever buzzwords you use.
You should do something constructive with your anger, child.
Says the guy who posted "shut up"... I wonder who's underage here.
You don’t even know what you’re talking about, so you’re either stupid or naive. Since I’m giving you the benefit of the doubt and assuming you’re just naive, I assume you’re just a child (or have the mental capacity of one).
That's an awful lot of words to say "yes, that's me".
Get some help.
Lol
Why would everything posted in this comment section have to do with the post, especially if it's a response to another comment instead of directly to the post?
Arguments are used in debate, this isn't really one.
Honestly, this meme was just a hunch and I'd love to be proven wrong.
When we're arguing about what should and shouldn't be allowed on the Fediverse, ad hominem is relevant, because it proves that you already don't speak for anyone else
Shut up
Careful my guy, you might get censorshipped!
I’ve been vaccinated, I’m okay!
nobody's making you be here
If it’s so shitty, then you can leave
Fuck off nazi
That is not censorship, my smooth friend. Nobody is censoring anybody in this context.
If you turn your tv off during a newscast are you censoring the broadcaster?
Go suck on Zucks nips. We're just blocking garbage
Honestly, with the user level blocking feature in personally against instance level blocking as well.
1a) if the instance held a vote on the matter id naturally accept the majority choice.
Edit: if you're going to down ote, be better than reddit and expand your thoughts. We're here to discuss, not act like ~~children~~ redditors

You're also forgetting that defederating means that Threads has no interaction with the fediverse meaning they can only do as much damage as a user can to those instances
Honest question, how would they be able to do damage via the federation protocol?
My understanding was that it sends data regarding posts comments and actions to all servers.
The closest I thought I had was some kind of instance ban but while that gets federated, it doesn't result in a ban elsewhere
Instance a bans user foobar Instance b sees this information but foobar is not banned by instance b.
We saw some of that with the hexbear drama a couple of months back
