Defederate from threads/meta

Hi guys,

So I maybe have a major noob question. But with threads and meta joining the fediverse, and instances should (could/shouldn't/will or will not) defederate from them... Is there something that I, as a simple user, can of should do?

Update Ok so lemmy.world just posted this https://lemmy.world/post/1274909

Saying they are going to wait and see.

To be honest, I don't trust meta for one bit so maybe it is time to switch server

Update 2 I liked this post https://ploum.net/2023-06-23-how-to-kill-decentralised-networks.html

Update 3 Apparently I can't migrate my account (yet)...

Lemmy.ml just preemptively did it. I think lemmy.world also did it earlier but you'll have to double check that.
- lemmy.ca has blocked it too.
  
  good eggs, those admins.
  
  Let's go Canada!
- threads.net is not listed in the blocked instances on lemmy.world/instances, so they haven't done it as of now. I can see it in lemmy.ml/instances
  
  Do we know that this is the one and only domain that they will use when and if they actually enable federation ?
  
  How would that even work? afaik lemmy can only see communities. would it show up as a huge stream in one community?
- What is the benefit of that? What would happen if Threads users could integrate with Lemmy?
  
  Enshitification. https://pluralistic.net/2023/01/21/potemkin-ai/#hey-guys
Yeah, blocking Meta as well @ FancyWhale. Not a fan of anything Meta/Google related anyways.
