These findings indicate that Threads engineers are exploring ad technology, but that doesn't mean Threads will debut ads anytime soon, as some suspect.
https://sh.itjust.works/instances lists threads.net under the blocked instances list, not everyone is using lemmy.world. Inform yourself before accusing others of making uninformed statements.
But you’re in an lemmy.word-hosted community right now, interacting with me who has a LW account, so you’re participating on a platform that’s federating with Threads. That’s like claiming not to participate with anything Google while mailing these claims to GMail addresses. You’re participating. You just don’t know how ActivityPub works and that’s why you think that being on any Fediverse server that didn’t explicitly block Threads would result in sposored posts from Threads magically showing up. You’re a conspiracy theorist.
Note the absence of any comment made by a user on ani.social. As far as users on lemmy.ml are concerned ani.social does not exist (as of 10 months ago, some existing content before then can still be viewed). I think you don’t know how ActivityPub works and calling me a conspiracy theorist won’t change that.

You very obviously do not understand how the blocklist works so here’s a very practical example:
ani.social is blocked by lemmy.ml.
Here is a post on lemmy.world containing comments by users from ani.social: https://lemmy.world/post/18538115
Here is that same post on lemmy.ml, which has blocked ani.social: https://lemmy.ml/post/19043133
