Re: Threads Is Testing ActivityPup Integration
#3Wow, this was a pleasant surprise. Now need 2way integration, so that Threads can see posts from Mastodon instances too. But what's the real reason for Meta to do that? Other clients will not show their ads like the official Threads client in the future... Maybe they just need to be "good guys" now, 3rd party with "< 0.1%" share are "OK". Anyway: good to see distribution here.

#4I really don't get why people keep inviting this kind of abuse in their lives. Regardless of who owns it, oligarch.net doesn't deserve your eyeballs.
Luckily, my instance put an end to it faster than one can say "domain block".

#5While ActivityPup is endearing, can we fix the typo to ActivityPub? :)
Re: Threads Is Testing ActivityPup Integration
#6I’m anxious but hopeful for this. I’ve left Twitter and enjoy Mastodon. I’d hate to see Meta destroy it, intentionally or not.
I want to believe federated systems can work even with extreme asymmetries in participants. I think if federated systems can’t, they’re forever doomed to obscurity.
Don’t get me wrong: obscurity has its benefits. Mastodon feels a lot like 2010 Twitter, and I love that. However I’d also love for federated systems to work for mainstream audiences.

I think we should get the protocol renamed to ActivityPup.

Would be great to have a feed that was only dogs, tho.

If it’s not 2way integration, then what’s the point? If Threads users can’t really interact with the ecosystem, then how is this different than some Reddit bridge? Fediverse users aren’t a huge fan of those
Re: Threads Is Testing ActivityPup Integration
#10Am I correct to assume that significant amount of Mastodon instances will not federate with Threads and that I'll still need a handful of ActivityPub accounts in order to access everything?
