Beeing honest: i dont like it when users put pressure on admins of big instances to block other whole instances because they dont like the way they operate, or because they belong to companys like Meta etc. Its something totally different if admins block instances that are legally problematic.
If somebody does not like that fact that eg mastodon.social federates with Bluesky etc. he/she is free to block the mentionings for themselfs, switch to another Mastodon Instance with a different block policy or to run an own fediverse server.
The fediverse has that possibilities which you dont have when using x etc
From my point of view that is way better than to censor the network for all other users on the server.

nothing you said disagrees with anything i said
a mastodonserverpact+ that says no to threads and bluesky doesn't mean you have to join it. it also doesn't mean servers aren't willing to join the + pact of their own free will. this is voluntary, coordinated group action
if it is appealing enough along with other provisions in the + pact it will grow and be successful
and, forgive my directness: who gives a shit if someone doesn't like it
it's voluntary
