  2. Not counting , The Monthly Actice Users count is quite low nowadays, a bit below 1M MAU. :/
    This is a bother, but I view as social media lite, so it isn't too bad :)

  3. 🚀✨ Meta's Threads: because clearly, the world was desperately pining for *another* social media platform to NOT use. 😆🌐 With time zone precision that nobody asked for, we're reminded that no matter where you are, Threads is just one more app to ignore. 💤📱

  4. Putting the feelers out there for my partner that runs a business on IG, is thinking about threads, and eventually wanting to move to mastodon.

    Due to some of the word being that if you delete the threads app, that your IG account also gets deleted or something....

    They are curious about what happens to their threads, and IG accounts, would they get erased if migrating away from threads to a mastodon instance?

  6. Threads deepens its ties to the open social web (fediverse)

    Meta's Threads is enhancing integration with the fediverse by:
    ➡️ allowing users to see fediverse replies on others' posts
    ➡️ syndicating API-originated posts to the fediverse.

    This aims to expand Threads' reach and utility, contrasting with X's restrictive API policies. The feature is in beta, with some Mastodon servers preemptively blocking Threads.

  7. On Symbols & Symbolism – The lost outpost - @andypiper

    Thoughts about the ongoing debate about a symbol for the Fediverse including Meta's Threads icon and a new suggestion using the Unicode asterism character.

  8. Up until now, I've stayed out of the Meta Threads discussion. I'll just say that in the last few months, I've discovered at least 3 folks that I had previously followed on Twitter, and now I'm very happy I can now follow them here on Mastodon. Being able to read their posts here greatly increases my satisfaction on Mastodon.

    FWIW, I get the concern about a possible Embrace, Extend, Extinguish play by Meta.

  10. Idea: start a mastodon instance that will federate with #MetaThreads for people whose only goal is to engage with threads users to help them leave Meta and welcome them to the fedi. Name: dumbfucks.social

  11. CW: Meta Threads

    Le blocage actif de Threads aux utilisateurs UE (ils bloquent maintenant les VPN de façon agressive) montre une seule chose, c’est que l’UE réussit à imposer ses lois. Les amendes *sont* dissuasives et font flipper Meta qui ne veut plus y aller « yolo et on verra après pour la légalité » comme dans le reste du monde.

  12. Scrolled a bit through #ThreadsApp just now. The #meta (haha) posting seems to have died down. At this point I’m maintaining the account as a starter list of normies and Brands™ once the service opens up federation.

  13. Here are my thoughts on #MetaThreads:

    They're just using ActivityPub to speed up their own growth. They don't give a damn about interoperability and federation. Once they have the numbers, they will drop ActivityPub faster than advertisers dropped Twitter.

  14. I'm not upset about #metathreads at all, but I love a good long-term waste warning message so this is perfect :chef_kiss:

  15. Why is #MetaThreads bothering to connect to the Fediverse? What do they gain?

  16. More and more animation/comics-related artists that already kind of despised Twitter are now on Threads. A lot may even find it more convenient because 1/ they’re more active on Instagram and 2/ sometimes they’re forbidden by contract with their producers to have any kind of interaction with 18+ content.

    To be honest if I could stop using a Twitter>Fediverse bridge to follow them I would be delighted.

    70m users so far on Threads, the migration button of Instagram is working full throttle

  17. Meta Threads invites Android users for a beta testing of its new features. However, it also comes with the usual beta version bugs and increased data collection.
