On Kbin, users can block whole servers, but also subscribe to whole servers.
True! OP uses Lemmy, though. I’m sure Lemmy will gain user blockable instances eventually, assuming the devs can find a way to do it without killing the database performance.
I mean, its easy to do the switch. I started on lemmy and switched to kbin and it feels just so much more modern and welcoming.
How do you do that? I’ve fiddled with it recently, because of the flood of German posts from feddit.de, I can’t speak a lick of German.
While instances will be the correct place to check it, it appears that, at least while Threads don’t have federation enabled, blocking it does not show up on that list.

It still shows up in Admin Settings, so I have to assume that once threads starts federating it will get blocked.

After having updated to 0.18.1-rc.10 for backend and rc11 for UI I can now see threads.net at the end of my blocked instances list.
Huh? I blocked lemmygrad.ml from showing up for me.Turns out I thought I had, but I did not. But now I don’t remember why I thought I had.
I must be going senile.

meta (threads) will not support fediverse already. They said they will do in some later version. So for the completely practical part, you don’t need to do anything right now.
Isn’t threads a Twitter clone? Will it even effect Lemmy? For me personally I don’t use Mastodon, but I might if threads is successful. I use Twitter to follow famous people I like. If famous people move to the fediverse because of threads that will only make sites like Mastodon better in my opinion.
My understanding is that Mastadon and Lemmy are both federated and I’ve seen Mastadon posts in my Lemmy feed somehow so it’s not unreasonable to assume threads could eventually populate its way over here at some point.
Well, if you’re on desktop and you don’t mind installing scripts on your browser, there’s a Tampermonkey/Greasemonkey script. https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/141704
Edit: wrong link
THANK YOU for this
Maybe I’m wrong, but I assumed this is more a concern for mastadon.
Lemmy doesn’t have this feature, but Kbin does. Kbin fixes a lot of the issues with Lemmy.
you can’t, but you can nag admins until they do
Second this. After the Reddit fiasco, I also deleted my Meta account and everything having to do with it. I want absolutely nothing to do with them or listen if they died as a platform or not.
It’s easy and painless to create a new account with a different instance, so if the instance you’re on isn’t doing what you want, just delete that account and switch to a better instance.
You can definitely create a new account elsewhere, but I’m going to need a 2 click solution to export my presence on my current instance and to import it into the new one before it’s “painless” or “easy”.
I don’t care about my comments or posts, but the block lists and subscriptions need to travel.
Threads still don’t have federalization implemented. Try to calm down a bit and not panic.
Being prepared is not panicking.
