#Threads is testing federation for a few selected profiles. I'm now following @mosseri! It's one-way for now, but it's exciting. It's a step towards the interoperable social web that we've been advocating for πŸ™‚
@Gargron I can't say I agree with you. The whole point of the federated social media platform was to move away from big corporation controlled social media - threads is STILL Meta after all. I'm all for progress, but with Meta???? eehhhh
@tyberry how is it controlling you if you can federate with them without accounts on their service? 
@fabiscafe I never said it was controlling me? I'm talking about how Meta is toxic due to being a huge corporation.
@tyberry yes, and that wont change. I'm curious what's your point?
@fabiscafe half the point of the fediverse is lost on a lot of us..
@tyberry yeah. This is the point where the fediverse will split in fedi and blockiverse.
@fabiscafe what kind of response is this? How can you accept such a huge coporation which has done nothing but harm it's users, into the fediverse so willingly? Asking honestly here.
@tyberry because I joined the fediverse in the hope to have, one day, the option to talk to people of other networks.

@fabiscafe Threads is not a network though, but a large monolith.

@tyberry

@wonka how is threads interop different from the interoperability of other fedi services? (Pixelfed, Lemmy)

it's just like any other custom ActivityPub server, right?

@Firepal3D Likely, but with 170 million users, which is, as far as I know, a multiple of what the rest of the fediverse has.
