Threads Blocks Minds, But For A Surprising Reason
It appears Threads has blocked another flagship Fediverse instance, although unlike Mastodon (Social) & Misskey (IO), I do not think Minds will attempt to appeal this domain block.
I am guessing @threads@threads.net blocked @minds@minds.com sometime after October 15th, as that is the last time I was able to view my Threads account (@darnell@threads.net) from my Minds account (@darnellclayton@minds.com, which I primarily use for testing purposes).
Ironically, Threads is blocking Minds for the same reason they have muted Pixelfed instances, as both of the latter lack an official public feed.
It is unclear if @ottman@minds.com & @john@minds.com will try to reach out to @zuck@threads.net & @mosseri@threads.net regarding this block.
However, I would not be surprised if @minds@threads.net uses news of the block as a marketing tool to get people to switch to their platform (especially given the recent fiasco regarding how Threads moderates users).
