Perfect, another app I’ve been desperately waiting for to never ever use.
Unpopular opinion, but I will try it, try to connect it to my fediverse instance then try to promote fediverse and my fediverse account in thread.
How is this going to work with mastodon and Lemmy?
Are we going to be able to add threads to our Lemmy feeds?
I don’t really get it right now.
I honestly think their touted federation will be in name only
Is this the federation killer?
I believe it’s based of activitypub like federated protocol. But doesn’t stop facebook from forking it to a point where its just as good as defederated. As much as i hate facebook; i would like for there being competition for twitter, so monopoly can be challenged!
I could see this actually gaining popularity from their Instagram user base. Twitter doesn’t attract younger people or influencers. It’ll be like discovering Facebook for gen z, where they can also share text posts. Maybe that’ll attract the people who left Twitter for turning alt-right. If it gets big enough, public figures could even leave Twitter. I’d be shocked if that happened, but a gal can hope.
This isn’t something I have any interest and I hate meta as much as anyone else here, but I’m interested in seeing how it will play out. If we can’t escape capitalism, at least we can watch it as a social experiment.
