1. Protecting the users of your service and fostering the culture you want is a responsibility. If you're not up for that responsibility, you should not be a moderator.

2. Do we want ActivityPub to go the way of XMPP? Neither ignoring Threads nor outright blocking will help to avoid that fate. Getting a different outcome takes work.

@thenexusofprivacy @fediverse @fediversenews Simply blocking Threads won't actually accomplish anything, except leave people stuck on Threads. If we want to actually help people, we need to take active actions beyond boycotts. We need to bleed users off of Threads, and we cannot do that if we block them outright.
