Why are fediverse admins blocking out threads? (reddthat.com)

I get meta evil, but aren’t we just blocking out any users from accessing the wider fediverse?

It is not about the data. It is about the users and communities. They can copy the content but a threads user couldn't really ask a fediverse user a question through threads. The interaction is why we are on social media. If threads is not part of the fediverse, it can't provide the users with the same interactions. the fediverse wants users on many different smaller servers. We need to get the user to move to such a server, if we want the fediverse to work.
