I would like to know if I can feel safe here, or if I should pack it up and start looking elsewhere sooner rather than later.

If the kbin staff have already made there intentions clear, please let me know.

    Blocking a domain through kbin only blocks threads from appearing on your feed. You still see users from that domain and their comments, and they see you and anything you post since it gets sent to their server.

    I think I’ve seen people comment on threads from mastodon, and maybe down the line threads implements… threads… as well, nothing’s stopping them really.

    This thread is specific to Kbin, which is why I mention it.

    We’re all part of the fediverse meaning someone from lemmy might want to participate on kbin magazines too. Not considering them when making decisions like this is a bit selfish.

      People from Threads will largely be in the “Microblog” tab, which Lemmy doesn’t have. The only people in the comments section will be people who purposely choose to follow Kbin communities.

      It still isn’t a good enough reason to take away that interaction from tens of thousands here on Kbin, though.
