Percentage of instances is meaningless without knowing their representative size in the overall context of the fediverse.

Yeah what % of the population has blocked Threads, since World has opted to not pre-emptively defederate

Interesting thought; I believe the number of instances is more representative, for the sole reason that mastodon social (the "default" instance of Mastodon) is a huge instance with millions of accounts and is already blocked by pretty much every other instance due to awfully meager moderation. Oh, the irony.
