Didn't most of the fediverse preemptively de-federate them already?

some do.

I have a small community masto instance and don't. If my users want to block the instance, it's literally 2 clicks and a confirmation away.

Doing to server wide is massively patronizing towards the users

Nah, users can vote and then if they don't get the vote they want, they can go to another instance.

Users on Mastodon can simply block their domain if they want to.

But can't Mastodon post on Lemmy and Lemmy can't block instances on an individual basis? That's the way I understand it currently stands. I don't want threads showing up in my feed and would like to block them.
