Hypothetically, they could implement some internal api and open Reddit to the fediverse no? What would happen then? (I’m sure they won’t because they want the money… but I’m just speculating…)

    Did major instances federate with Threads? Honestly, all I saw from that fiasco were some screenshots of celebrities making fools of themselves. I never saw the outcome.

      Threads hadn’t actually coded in the ActivityPub protocol into their system yet when they released. They released a bit early because they were trying to strike while Twitter/X was going through some drama.

      According to them at the time they will federate in a few months. Not sure how realistic that is, but it’s what they were claiming then. I haven’t paid much attention since.

      So as of now, nobody is federated with Threads.
