I don't see Threads when I try to block it as an instance. Why? (lemmy.sdf.org)

Went to the block page in Settings and typed "threads" into the instance field. Threads.net didn't show up. Is this because they are already blocked by SDF? Or are they still getting my content? I already had a Threads user reply to one of my comments maybe a month ago. I decided to wait and see how I felt about it and I'm certain: I don't want my posts reaching them. Thanks in advance.

can this also happen if nobody on the instance is subscribing to anything on threads?

also: i think blocking threads with your settings may not prevent users on threads from seeing your posts

I believe this is accurate.

Unrelated... do you remove the default self-upvote from your own comments?

Yes.

Why, though?
