Plans to pre-emptively defederate from threads? (self.meta)

I just saw that lemmy.ml has pre-emptively defederated from threads. Are there any plans to do that here? I personally want nothing to do with Meta/Facebook, and I'm sure that's not an unpopular opinion around here.

edit: y'all, please pay attention to where you are when coming from all.

edit again: kbin really ought to make a post's home instance more clear.

Just a reminder that regardless of what kbin.social decides, you can block federated domains for yourself. Go to:
https://kbin.social/d/domainname
So I just blocked Threads and it was:
https://kbin.social/d/threads.net
On the right side, click the "don't" icon (circle with a slash through it). When it's red, that means that domain is blocked.

That's great for kbin users and all, but this community is meta for the slrpnk.net instance, which runs lemmy.

edit: that also seems like it would just make links to said domain invisible. They can see you, but you can't see them. I could be wrong, as I've never used kbin before.

Apologies. Some federated content comes through with (kbin.social) after the thread title. I'm sure it's one of the bugs Ernest is working on.

Yes, I'd checked for myself what this thread looks like on kbin.social, and I certainly see how the confusion happened. Not very clear at all! I was wondering why like 3 kbin users had chimed in. 😅

Here's a screenshot where you can block the domain.
