I've seen that some instances have already done it preemptively.

Eh, they aren’t federated yet and even if they do, I don’t really see a point in having less content by blocking them server wide.

Can’t you just block it individually if you don’t like it?

Currently, there is no way for a user to block an entire instance, only individual communities. Ideally, this would be implemented, and then the user, like you said, could make their own decision whether to see Threads or not.

Lemmy Connect just added the option to block instances. However it doesn't seem to be working at all from my experience. But I think that'll be fixed in the coming days. And I'm sure other apps will implement the feature, as well as the adoption to Lemmy/Kbin itself. Just a matter of time.
