Let that sink in
So how will Meta attempt to kill activity pub in terms of embrace, extend, extinguish?
“Look we are using ActivityPub, aren’t we cool?”
“Look you can access other federated instances on our platform, isn’t that cool?”
“All the best content is on our platform now, so we are removing the federation aspect”
Boy I am generally against defederating but having that large a mass of humanity come in is making me rethink it.
I’ve said it many times, anyone willing to give Meta even the tiniest bit of the slightest of the doubt is at best incredibly naive.
@revampeduser I heard they just added every Instagram user automatically? Sounds like fake numbers to me.
They did not, no. However, they do share accounts, so if you have Instagram already, you can just download the Threads app, open it, and immediately sign in with the same saved credentials as Instagram.
