It should come as no surprise that the 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.

    How did you get an account on. ml? I thought they closed new account registration ?

      They’re open as it seems (since I got to register today), but the sign-up process requires you to answer a few basic questions to verify you’re not a bot or spam account.

        Thanks for letting me know about this. I just requested an account. How long did it take for yours to be approved?

          A couple of minutes, don’t know if I was lucky or not though. Remember to check your email if you provided it!
