Tumblr said that too but never did it actually. It’s not so easy to join a network where the skills of any single “kid” could be compared to your 1000+ employees company.
Not yet, but they’ve said it will be. Personally I’m excited to see “mainstream” social media using ActivityPub, but you’ll find that it’s quite a divisive issue.
I’ve said this elsewhere, but I don’t really agree with the article’s premise about what happened to XMPP.
XMPP was a niche thing before Google appeared, and it remained a niche thing after Google left. That said, it would have been much better had Google continued to support it!
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: [email protected]
Rules:
Be civil and nice.
Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
Are threads federated?
it can interact with mastodon yeah.
but afaik it’s a one-way integration currently. (mastodon users can see threads users but not vise versa)
Threads is federated afaik, yeah. It’s just that many Fediverse instanced blocked Meta.
They haven’t federated yet but they say they will eventually. I’m going to change instances to ones that don’t want to join them if/when it happens.

Same. Glad to see not everyone wants rid of it
I was also on your boat, until I read this… Take into account this was published before Threads was official. https://ploum.net/2023-06-23-how-to-kill-decentralised-networks.html
