Can I get a link to the EEE article that's been floating around? Trying to explain this to a friend and I'm too dumb/they do a good job

ELI5 federation on Lemmy
It uses a slightly different configuration than Mastodon but otherwise it behaves exactly the same. You can read and reply to Lemmy posts from Mastodon.
In the same way, you can block requests from certain servers (this is called defederating) so their users can't reply, follow or spam you.

Does Threads show up as an instance I can block?
I think every instance should be able to federate with whomever they wish, I just don't want to participate.

Where can we find out which of the larger instances blocked or did not block Threads?

I'd like to join an instance that doesn't defederate from anything.
Perhaps we can have two separate fediverses going.

Embrace, extend, extinguish.
Kinda sucks because now you really have no control over who gets your data. No need to scrape pages or embed trackers when the fediverse just broadcasts your activity to anyone.
Even if your instance defederates from threads, doesn’t mean they defederated from yours, so anything you do is fair game for Meta’s data collection. That’s at least as I understand it.
