Interoperability between social networks is here.

@carnage4life it’s weird because I’ve seen half a dozen posts saying this but none of them have a link to follow him
@swart @carnage4life You can follow @potus.
@swart @carnage4life I guess something is preventing you from seeing that. Seems to work fine for me and I have followed, maybe your provider blocks threads.net or some other reason.
@sumiya maybe, or it’s something about the protocol that breaks with my client. I’m not super keen on political messages anyhow
