@TheAdminNewsie.social Admin Team can u please assist w my concern re #threads access to our postings & #fediverse per this update #Threads is largest app to adopt #ActivityPub, protocol powering the fediverse, worrying some that Meta will take over decentralized, open source social network made up of interconnected servers. Though Threads isnโt yet full integrated, already some #Mastodon server operators have preemptively #blocked Threads, so their users canโt interact w Meta-run social network and vice versa.

Quite a few have blocked #Threads. See #FediPact, though I don't know if the list is still actively maintained and up-to-date.
Other than that #Meta has taken strategic position on the #ActivityPub #Fediverse, and effectively hold the cards. Opinions vary on this.
In any case building it was a big success for them. Built on a dime on top of #Instagram stack, see:

I'd say they are ready to pounce but ONLY if needed.
