Here’s everything we know about it so far:
- It will use ActivityPub.
- It will be a side app of Instagram.
- It will most likely be called Threads.
- Your Instagram verification status will transfer over.
- There will be easy discovery tools in place: Your Instagram followers will be able to follow you on Threads as well (they won’t transfer over automatically).
What do you think?
Not very interested, except if everyone I follow on twitter moves there (which I doubt would happen, as most are rather trying to move to mastodon). But it would sure be nice to have a twitter that’s not run by fucking elon musk. Meta aren’t saints and facebook has been trash for many years, but they’ve never implemented absolutely dumb decisions as far as I know or made fools of themselves really. Nor does Meta’s CEO keep spouting reactionary nonsense and trying to be the center of attention at all times. I won’t ever install a Meta app on my phone, but I still think I actually prefer Zuckerberg over absolute clowns like Musk or Spez.
