Discussion about the aussie.zone instance itself

With all the talk about lemmy.ml defederating from threads I’ve been wondering what Aussie.zone’s stance is on the matter.

I hadn't thought of it, but one of the admins on the mastodon part of the fediverse made a good point: We might not have a choice, we might all have to defederate and blackhole threads because they could hit the entire fediverse with so much traffic it'll destroy our servers and our internet connections.

With the talk going around of creating a dynamic Blocklist to defederate instances infested with trolls/bots it wouldn't be to hard to create another one to block instances federated with Meta. This would fix the problem you mention.
