I’m planning to join but don’t want to join if I’ll see treads there

    I think ActivityPup isn’t even integrated into Threads yet? On release they said soon, a week later they said it was long-time planning. Haven’t heard about it since.

      @cambionn @Bicyclejohn They’ve gone from talking about ActivityPub support as a thing that is happening “soon,” to something that is “further down the road” and a “long term goal.” If they decide they can sustain the platform without it, I expect they’ll drop the feature.

        On the one hand, great, I don’t want Meta anywhere near something I like. On the other hand, my friends are going to be on Threads, not Mastodon, so it’d be nice to follow them without having to go there.

        They say they’ll do it but if they get a enough users without it then I think they might scrape that feature. I can’t imagine it integrates well with their existing code

      Threads have even recently said that ActivityPub is a long way away from being implemented.

    @Bicyclejohn@lemmy.ml Theads isn’t planning on joining the fediverse any time soon. Additionally, there is no algorithm here to feed you anything. If you eventually start seeing content from threads, it’s because of someone you’re following. Unfollow or mute them. But for now it’s a moot point.
