Andy Baio on Nostr: I'm skeptical that Threads ever meaningfully integrates ActivityPub, personally. ...
I'm skeptical that Threads ever meaningfully integrates ActivityPub, personally. Mosseri repeatedly said before launch that account portability was a top priority for Threads, but I think the moment they exploded in popularity, that was dead in the water. The Threads social graph is basically the Instagram social graph, and the idea that Meta would freely let that go seems pretty unlikely.
