I’ve gotten so tired of the non-stop reddit/lemmy/mastodon/threads drama I pulled the plug on all recurring donations for the foreseeable future. Thanks to threads the fedverse is starting the reddit style drama cycles and I’m pretty much over trying to sort through it.
I know I can block content, my concern is my refusal to donate to an outfit that supports meta or similar properties.
Threads hasn’t even implemented ActivityPub yet, and there’s no guarantee it will do so in the future. Or even that it will implement it in a way that links with lemmy.
I personally haven’t seen a post from lemmy.world admins pledging to block threads. Even if you do, take it with a grain of salt.
I’ve personally blocked communities and users that talk about reddit/threads all the time. It’s cool that they have a space to do it, I’m just not super into those topics right now and can always unblock them later.
Deleted my first post, as I’m confusing myself. No official post has been on lemmy.world regarding the upcoming fiasco. However, the mastodon.world account on Mastodon has stated that they will NOT be defederating, and will take a “wait and see” stance.

Bear in mind that mastodon.world is hosted and administered by the same person as lemmy.world. They didn’t specifically say that lemmy.world will have the same standpoint, but I hope not. Even though I am very new to the Fediverse, I already view the .world servers as a home, and I would hate to leave. I do believe that Meta is a known bad actor. EDITED: I’m torn over the whole thing, but I know I want nothing to do with Meta.
I’ll be watching closely, and if I see any META THREADS bullshit show up on this instance’s community titles / comments I’m gonna send a strongly worded message. Then I’m going to find another fucking instance to move my account to.

I’m thinking the answer will be “no federation with threads”.
The same admin with lemmy.world has posted this on mastodon
