Threads are making gestures toward federating with ActivityPub. That opens for a ton of new fedi users, but also gives Meta leverage over the policies and access to user information on independent servers.

See the linked post for arguments in favour of defederating from threads.net altogether. My question is in the title, where does Leminal Space stand on this?

Ty for the update! I do think that meta has enough going on in threads for it to fail our ToS (e.g. unmoderated alt-right content) so I am not in full agreement of the "wait and see" approach; and additionally, as you mention, user level blocking doesn't exactly do much for the data harvesting processes they're infamous for. So I'd rather the preemptive block. But I am ok with a wait and see approach as long as we're able to act fast as soon as they inevitably do another war crime or whatever ๐Ÿ˜
