It should come as no surprise that the lemmy.ml admin team took about 2 minutes to decide to pre-emptively block threats / Meta. Their transparent and opportunistic scheme to commodify the fediverse and it’s users will not be allowed to proceed.

We strongly encourage other instance administrators to do the same, given the grave threat they pose to the fediverse.

    To be fair…you have the ability to fix this yourself by hosting your own instance.

      Yes and suggesting that average users can simply set up a server and then navigate either Docker or Ansible just to maintain consistent content preferences isn’t perhaps realistic. Even for tech-literate folks it’s kind of a big lift, and I have to suspect it’s one of the issues that could keep the Fediverse from enjoying wider adoption.
