MODERATORS
As a small instance, defederating from Threads could do more harm than good. Denying users access to a potentially large amount of content could cause them to move on.
If you’re concerned about them slurping your content, don’t be. They can just easily set up an instance at billjoejimbob.com and slurp it indirectly. They very likely already are.
I doubt people joining small instances would miss any content from FB/Instagram/Threads/Twitter
The content on reddit is huge but I cut the tie and happier with Lemmy.
