Lemmy.ml has now blocked threads.net / Meta - Lemmy
lemmy.ml
external-link
It should come as no surprise that the lemmy.ml [http://lemmy.ml] admin team took about 2 minutes to decide to pre-emptively block threats / Meta. Their transparent and opportunistic scheme to commodify the fediverse and it’s users will not be allowed to proceed. We strongly encourage other instance administrators to do the same, given the grave threat they pose to the fediverse.

Lemmy.ml has now blocked Threads.net

    It’s only been out a few days, let me know if you have any issues!

      Thanks for this! Just gave this a try, downloaded from .world just fine, but uploading to .ml gives this error: ERROR: Failed Login - HTTP status client error (403 Forbidden) for url (https://lemmy.ml/api/v3/user/login)

        That usually means wrong username/password! But if you’re sure, I can make an account on lemmy.ml and give it a shot.

          Thanks for the feedback. The username and password are indeed correct. I copied and pasted from Bitwarden and used the exact same ones to login to the lemmy.ml site. I do wonder if there is some sort of anti-bot measures that Colonel Sanders mentioned below.

          Also: I tried just my username vs email but neither worked and I also don’t have MFA enabled yet. Super weird.

          EDIT: opened an issue on Github: https://github.com/CMahaff/lasim/issues/4

            I have a fix! Merging the branch and dropping a new release shortly. Thanks for reporting this!
