You have no idea why it’s being used in the headlines and to what purpose but you keep it relevant in every circle you visit. Haha I’m surprised you didn’t just link a Reddit post that links to a X post about the subject.

Sure deterred them from doing it again after the first time… oh wait.

There are instance profile settings where you can change the default view to subscription you can access through the browser, and on iOS/Android there are Memmy and other lemmy apps that have their own settings as well for your phone where you can also change the settings to whichever default view you want, specific to while using the app on your phone.

“other team bad”, weird to specify rich conservatives and totally ignore the rich liberal people doing the same. What do they both have in common, besides the desire to control and amass power and wealth?

Maybe reconsider where you spend your time then? You aren’t locked to a single instance. Also, sub to what you like and change your view to subscription, problem solved.

What steps did you take to preemptively block it? I want nothing to do with Threads either but am a bit confused on what I should be doing. Is there a list of instances who defederated from threads or something?

That’s not what they said, though? What weird deflecting response when you could have just said nothing.
