Based on data from https://fedipact.veganism.social/ it seems that the majority of instances blocks threads.net. I'm sure there's Lemmy instances with either approach that have slipped through the cracks as the list is a work in progress.

The percentage of users doesn't correlate to instances as the biggest instance on the Lemmyverse has roughly 3x the users of the second largest, a NSFW instance, 4x the users of the biggest "niché" instance and 5x the users of what I see as the second largest general purpose instance.

It's owned by Meta, the company that runs Facebook. If you're still unsure about the situation perhaps this can help out: https://erinkissane.com/untangling-threads

    And the crux of the matter:

    Less emotionally, I think it’s unwise to assume that an organization that has…

    • demonstrably and continuously made antisocial and sometimes deadly choices on behalf of billions of human beings and
    • allowed its products to be weaponized by covert state-level operations behind multiple genocides and hundreds (thousands? tens of thousands?) of smaller persecutions, all while
    • ducking meaningful oversight,
    • lying about what they do and know, and
    • treating their core extraction machines as fait-accompli inevitabilities that mustn’t be governed except in patently ineffective ways…

    …will be a good citizen after adopting a new, interoperable technical structure.
