Threads users who have federated their accounts can now see replies from other platforms, but not reply to the replies (yet) https://www.theverge.com/2024/6/25/24185226/meta-threads-fediverse-likes-replies
Meta is connecting Threads more deeply with the fediverse

Threads will now let people like and see replies to their Threads posts that appear on other federated social media platforms.

@vmstan and its not enabled in the EU for now.
@vmstan I wonder if this is why I've seen a big uptick in POST requests coming from facebook user agents.
@vmstan unfortunatley it is not enabled for users in the EU.
Ugh I forgot they were trying to do this. Yo @iama , we don't fw (federate with :p) Facebook nonsense, right?
@babe

@kytkat @babe

Correct we have them blocked! 😉

@iama
Heck yeah! Thanks mod team :3
@babe
@vmstan this is the first time I've seen a Mastodon byline on a news card like that. Love it!

@vmstan Blocked here too. For an activist server access by Meta is an unacceptable risk. Now we have the issue of content being scraped to train AI on top of the other issues.

I totally agree with quaranting anything owned by Meta or Google.

@vmstan I'd like meta to stay away from the fediverse

@vmstan

and only the original poster sees it. and tagging #threads users doesn't do anything. slow but improving and the potential of total federation for all of social media is just so huge.
