blake, The Threads hate is reasonable.
I even agree with it.
And yet I choose to federate with it, under careful supervision and with no hesitation to block at the user level (which I have done several times, with brands).
That's because I'm a cishet white man. I face little threat from Threads.
If I can put this another way: I'm on the team that can try to get "good" Threads users to come over here, like the Green brothers and Joe Biden (people I want to hear from). For many, many other people, the risks outweigh this, so they'll choose to block Threads, which is a valid choice and for them is the correct one, far and away.
Harassment over it is not the answer and will solve nothing.
