Agreed. The entire point of this federation and it is being essentially burned because someone wants to join.

I’ll use a very loose and likely wrong political analogy.

If a right wing group says the left wing are not inclusive and blocking certain people from joining. The left wing denies this and says anyone can join. So a right wing member tries to join and the left wing says “sorry not you”.

Let threads join. Don’t subscribe to any of their communities. Simple.

I fact it’s very much like Apollo, and the whole reason I’ve come to lemmy full time the day Apollo went dark.

I’ve even self hosted it.
