    I’m glad that my instance has defederated with them. Thanks a lot @tedvdb@feddit.nl for keeping the spirit of Lemmy alive!

      How can you check to see if your instance is federated with them?

          Interesting. I’m not seeing my instance in there at all.

            I couldn’t find the Mastodon instance that I use either. This list is very likely incomplete. As another Lemming replied in this thread, try to look up something from threads.net. If you can’t see anything, then your instance has probably defederated from them.

    I think if lemmy disappears I’m going to give up on the internet. Basically just use it for the necessary things that I need it for.

    Can someone explain why so many comments saying this is bad and want their instances to block threads? Seems like it would be a good thing to make the fediverse bigger and more accessible.

      The reasons are plenty, they are laid out here:

      This deadline they gave their users without announcing it that just passed comes to mind.

      Guarantee they give zero shits about anyone’s copyright messages on comment on the 'verse. More tightly they integrate and the more this just becomes Facebook all over again

              Make a scramble! It takes lots of ingredients, plus egg, but the egg is kinda on the side and largely irrelevant.

              It’s all the ingredients that make the scramble worth it. Like life. It wouldn’t be great if everyone were… wait… no…

              Lots of flavors make the dish good. Yep that works.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


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

    Previously, if you made a post on Threads that was syndicated to another platform like Mastodon, you wouldn’t be able to see responses to that post while still inside Threads.

    That meant you’d have to bounce back and forth between the platforms to stay up-to-date on replies.

    Thanks to this upgrade, you’ll probably do less of that, but in a screenshot, Meta notes that you can’t reply to replies “yet,” so it sounds like that feature will arrive in the future.

    Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg also revealed that Threads’ fediverse integration will be available starting today in more than 100 countries, a significant expansion from its initial availability in the US, Canada, and Japan.

    Meta has been vocal about its plans to integrate with the decentralized social networking protocol ActivityPub since launching Threads nearly a year ago, with first testing starting in December.

        Afaik on lemmy only your host instance knows what you upvote/downvote, instances just sync the number of upvotes, not the users who voted. So they cannot analyze that, even if they spin up a their own lemmy instance l was wrong, see reply

        Comments are 100% public though, that’s true

            I see, so all instance admins can see that theoretically, but regular users can’t. I don’t remember where I read what I wrote, can’t find it now.

            It’s a bit misleading that lemmy developers themself call votes “essentially anonymous” like in this issue: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4088

            With this in mind I will go back to upvote memes with my other accounts, and switch between them more regularly.
