Why don't I see Threads.net posts in my home feed? (sh.itjust.works)

Before you comment, please know that I'm not complaining. Someone asked this in Mastodon and it's a good question because if you don't block Threads dot net, then you can look people up and follow them and vice versa.

In my home feed I see posts from other Mastodon servers but not from Threads. Why is that? Thanks in advance

Edit There are no Threads dot net posts in my Global feed either. And I haven't blocked Threads either.

A lot of instances block it. You can check the moderated servers section on your instance about page to see if it's blocked.

Meta does a terrible job moderating, so it can be a massive amount of extra work dealing with shitty people from there. They also have policy agreements to collect your data if you federate with them.
