A few days ago, data.coop blocked Meta/Threads on our Mastodon instance.
The decision has been under way for some time. The instance (as everything else in data.coop) is owned and run by our members. In order to block, we needed to change our guidelines, which was a decision for our members. We see this as a strength, that it's the community making the decisions, not a single person or a group of few people.
