You can block Meta surprisingly: just never join or close the current account.

I tried threads but had to leave it so quickly. All the posts I see are just baits, people trying to say controversial/stupid things just to seek attention and reaction. I don't know much about social media algorithms, but if the result is that I'm constantly fed with things I don't want to see, maybe it's not the platform I want to be in.
