Hi everyone, I’m one of the administrators of the Lemmy feddit.it instance - my nick is @poliverso@[email protected]
Together with our fellow administrators, based on some impact assessments, we have decided not to operate any preventative block against Threads, but I am not aware that we are still federated. I noticed that your instance is federated to Threads instead, but I don’t understand how this was possible. The strange thing is that, from your instance, it is still not possible to view those dozen Threads accounts that are currently “federable”. So I wanted to ask you: is there a way to force federation?
Thanks in advance for your feedback, sorry for the inconvenience and best wishes for a happy holiday!
sh.itjust.works explicitly blocks Threads. They held a vote among the local users: https://sh.itjust.works/post/11308397
Um… that’s not what it looks like from the relevant page: https://sh.itjust.works/instances
It’s in the “Blocked Instances” section, where it should be.
You’re right, sorry 🤦♂️ 🙇♂️ : the federated instance was threads.ruin.io, not threads.net
