@Mastodon Thanks. This post is a little confusing though because you discuss Mastodon users following Threads users but then say Threads and Mastodon are not interoperable? So I guess I don't understand if I can follow Threads users or if they can follow me.

    @brianvastag @Mastodon At the moment threads is completely isolated but meta intends that in the near future threads and mastodon users will be able to interact.

  • @brianvastag @Mastodon Not on launch. They intend to federate, but right at this moment Threads is not in the fediverse. 'We expect that eventually Mastodon and Threads will be interoperable'

    @brianvastag @Mastodon I believe Meta is planning to make Threads interoperable with Mastodon at some point, but for now there's no connection between the two :)

    @brianvastag Threads has not turned on federation yet, so currently neither are interoperable with eachother. Once they turn it on, then both will work with eachother like any other ActivityPub server

  • @brianvastag @Mastodon They plan on eventually being interoperable, but they’re not integrating with Activity Pub to start. So right now, users on Threads can’t follow Mastodon users, for example.

    @brianvastag They can't follow one another yet. Threads is supposed to support ActivityPub at a later point in time, but it does not yet do so. @Mastodon

    @brianvastag @Mastodon I believe the goal for Threads is that it will be interoperable with Mastodon or other application that utilize the fedi verse, but as of now, Threads is isolated to only users on Threads.
