How to defederate Threads (waste-of.space)

Can someone write the exact steps to defederate from threads?

I want to be defederated from them before they start, and see if I allow them later when the storm is gone.

I tried to use the Search function but that did not work very well, so sorry if this is already documented somewhere.

As far as I understand, they didn't enable federation yet and I'm not sure preemptive defederation is a thing. Additionaly, IIRC, you cant defederate with anything as a user (although you can block), your instance can.

I might be wrong, though

I have my own instance :)

Oooh, nevermind then!

Inside the admin settings there should be an input box named "blocked instances", just put the domain name of the instance you want to block in there.

And threads.net is the domain name eh?

That's what I've blocked yeah. Though you can't really have any confirmation (the "software" and "version" fields will remain blank) because they haven't even enabled federation yet.

Thank you!

I did the same.
