For the new ppl here to the community, just wanna say welcome! This is an exciting time to find your way to the Fediverse. It’s a massive network and has potential to be even larger. I see so many new and interesting communities pop up daily with members that are here to share knowledge and collaborate with others as well simply be social and chat, even large social platforms are now finding their way to the Fediverse as well.
Threads by Instagram/Facebook is now part of this huge space. This is a great thing, I feel with large social platforms finding their way here network stability will increase. There’s some cons to this too. We all know when big business moves to town the ads come as well. What is everyone’s thoughts on this? 🐈⬛
No it will not support federation for a while. It’s also not available in several countries including the EU. Meta’s may have got their user base all fired up for something that may very well fizzle out and die. That’s okay, I care not about Meta however those that get a feel for the Fediverse and become familiar may make the decision to relocate permanently, leaving such disdain that is now Reddit and others, even Meta. 🐈⬛
