Much like Meta has decided to join the fediverse, Reddit could also decide to setup it's own instance(s) and federate with the existing Lemmy instances.

What is your opinion about that? Should your instance block a Reddit instance? Or would you welcome it?

Reddit or Meta/Faecesbook, I think that the conclusion is the same - it's a hostile entity seeking control over this side of the Fediverse, and it should be isolated before it's able to cause damage. If done early enough, we can minimise the annoyance for users and maximise the effectiveness of the pre-emptive defed.

Reddit's recent actions show that federating is the exact opposite of how they want to run their site, so I don't see this happening any time soon.
