Great.
I joined the Fediverse to escape Facebook's toxic interpretation of communities, so Facebook is coming to the Fediverse instead.
Just great...

You should just join an instance that blocks threads.net. Fortunately there are many of such instances. Your current instance doesn't seem to defederate any other instance, which is kind of suspect on its own.

SDF is a very hands-off instance. I've seen many trolls in bad actors on there. It also has some management issues since it can go down for long periods of time.

The only reason I have an account there and the only reason I would encourage anyone to use it is because it's run by the SDF foundation and it will probably be around forever. Well at least as long SDF itself.

Check https://fedipact.online for instances that have defederated threads. Good luck! :)

Fedipact needs much more exposure. It's important to spread this message both because of Facebook's evil practices, but also that they favor hostile users and have atrocious moderation letting a lot of nasty shit slide that shouldn't.
