Based on data from https://fedipact.veganism.social/ it seems that the majority of instances blocks threads.net. I’m sure there’s Lemmy instances with either approach that have slipped through the cracks as the list is a work in progress.

The percentage of users doesn’t correlate to instances as the biggest instance on the Lemmyverse has roughly 3x the users of the second largest, a NSFW instance, 4x the users of the biggest “niché” instance and 5x the users of what I see as the second largest general purpose instance.

        And the crux of the matter:

        Less emotionally, I think it’s unwise to assume that an organization that has…

        • demonstrably and continuously made antisocial and sometimes deadly choices on behalf of billions of human beings and
        • allowed its products to be weaponized by covert state-level operations behind multiple genocides and hundreds (thousands? tens of thousands?) of smaller persecutions, all while
        • ducking meaningful oversight,
        • lying about what they do and know, and
        • treating their core extraction machines as fait-accompli inevitabilities that mustn’t be governed except in patently ineffective ways…

        …will be a good citizen after adopting a new, interoperable technical structure.

      This is the way i see the situation:

      Letting meta join the fediverse means they will captivate the general audience and the fediverse will stop growing. Realizing this, it could lead a lot of contributors to the lemmy/mastodon/activitypub projects lose interest, which will slow down development and could eventually lead to the death of the fediverse project.

      This is how it goes:

      People get accustomed to all the content from Meta/Threads

      Meta adds extra features to their website which do not work with other fediverse instances

      People switch from lemmy/mastodon to threads or join threads directly and never ever consider joining the real fediverse.

      The fediverse project either dies down or remains a niche project forever.
