Would love to know how many people on threads interact with the fediverse beyond threads.
I know it’s still early and features are being built out, but my guess is the number is close to 0.
- mkarliner 2y agoAgain, not really the point. So long as Meta can say their platforms are open, they have a bulwark against regulators and/or being broken up. It really doesn't matter to them if it's popular or not.
- crowcroft 2y agoI would go as far as to say they don't really want it to be popular, but I would love to see enough integration for there to be at least some attempt at competition.
- jaredcwhite 2y agoThere's lots of Fediverse interaction on Threads. It's a little tricky still because you can follow Threads users from other instances but you can't follow accounts on other instances from Threads. That being said, I see lots of people (myself included) boosting, liking, and even commenting on Threads content from elsewhere in the Fediverse. And now that Threads has just started to publicly show fedi comments on Threads (not just to the OP), we'll get a better sense of engagement on any given post.
