"the purpose of The Pact is to embolden instances to commit to blocking project92/barcelona/threads. a lotta peeps were already talking bout preemptively blocking it since the march leaks, me included. and the idea popped into my head that maybe if we had like, y'know, a thingy peeps could sign to show their support for it... it might weaken that argument that it's like pointless or whatever, and might make that choice easier to make"
@vantablack there's also instances which haven't officially signed the Fedipact but do already block Threads (TBH I think all the main Northern European based instances other than mastodon.social do now block Threads).
Apart from the poor moderation there, it is very likely to flood the server and increase the costs of running it due to extra data traffic and the way its set up is more geared towards helping Meta gather data rather than real interaction, so there is 0 gain for anyone to federate with Threads
