The Fediverse isn’t completely unmoderated, but it’s not hella huge either. Plenty of moderation issues due to lack of having mods available 24/7 already exist. Just a few weeks ago, CSAM was being spammed all over the place and it took almost an entire day for action to be taken.
I for one am not in favor of giving my ability to curate my experience myself up to have someone else choose for me, so in almost every case I would be against defederation from the admin level.
Of course. I’m not advocating for Threads to not be blocked by those who don’t want it. I’m just not in favor of someone else making that choice for me. If they become a problem, I can block it myself. I don’t need or want to be babied by the admins/instance operators.

Instances like threads.net?
Moderation might be lacking now, but it will become unmanageable after.

So make your own instance then?
