@dansup Default Blocking of big instances will slowly kill the fediverse. If big companies learn that they are not welcome they won't make efforts any more and let's be honest here: Most Users don't care and won't be in the fediverse in this case.

@tokk Threads is making federation opt-in similar to this, what is the difference?

@dansup The difference is the power/Userbase each Network has. To become equal, the Fediverse must open its doors and welcome users. Instead they are blocked everywhere and won't get interested in it.

Thanks Dan. I think opt-in is a good way to go with meta for pixelfed in particular. Many users are on pixelfed because they made a conscious choice to not be on Instagram.

This doesnโ€™t mean every company that wants to get on the fedi would need to be opt-inโ€ฆmeta seems like a special case. Even meta admits there is a โ€œtrust deficitโ€, and they are doing opt-in as well, so I think this is a good call.
