Some instances know their embrace, extend, extinguish history and some don’t.

The color codes and symbols aren't at all propagandist.
I mean technically, but it's not like it's trying to be subtle about it. From the page:
I believe that Facebook represents one of the gravest threats to democracies around the world [...]
The point is to discourage instances from federating with threads.

I thought the same, then I saw the quote at the top of the page and realized it wasn’t strictly for information tracking

Huh. You'd think more instances were blocking, given the amount of buzz.
Being generallky in favor of letting individual users make this call that's... mildly encouraging. Of course I happen to be in an instance that is blocking, so...
It's worth noting that this still splits Mastodon pretty much in half. That's arguably a bigger concern than anything else Meta may be doing. They may not even have to actually federate to break Mastodon, which is a very interesting dynamic.
There seems to a mistake saying that Threads is not blocked by lemmy.zip, when we defederated them months ago.
It's somehow fun to see instance rules adding a clause about We do not federate with organization involved in Genocides
And a pitty that Meta is that Bad !
This is not an exhaustive list. For example, Instagram Threads profiles are available from kbin.social, which is not listed here, though.

Am I the one who finds X federated in the status of this website as that instance is not federated ?
It also confuses me that it says like that instance is federated.
Yes. I get the idea, because federating with them is the "negative" option, but honestly it's just confusing and overly opinionated for an infographic.

Is Lemmy.world not going to defederate from Threads? Did I miss something?
Thanks so much for the link!
Time to migrate my account then ¯_(ツ)_/¯
That's Mastodon.world or is that the same as lemmy.world?
Same admin.

We gotta pump these numbers up
Not nearly enough.
This is why I love DBZER0
Good. On one hand it's good to see fediverse stuff coming mainstream, on the other hand the last thing we want is a load of celebrities and brands trying to cannibalise said fediverse as an opportunity to corner the market instead of genuinely useful resources for communication
