I've seen that some instances have already done it preemptively.

Just wanted to ask, but how do you defederate a non federated platform like threads? Does it just block the website and its links on this instance?

Edit: nevermind apparently they also used ActivityPub so it makes sense. But as a non microblogging website like lemmy that is more like reddit than Twitter, what does defederation mean?

Pretty sure it just simply means content won't cross over in either direction.
