Head over to the gaming@beehaw.org link that you shared as an example and notice that the posts are 3+ days old and all the recent posts are from instances other than beehaw; this clearly shows that Lemmy.world has not been receiving any data from beehaw for some time already.

So no need to block them then.
Sounds like you’re really missing the threads experience; why aren’t you there and posting 250 characters at a time?
Same reason I don’t use GMail and yet want to keep the option open to receive and send e-mails to GMail users.
