There’s been a lot of speculation around what Threads will be and what it means for Mastodon. We’ve put together some of the most common questions and our responses based on what was launched today: https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2023/07/what-to-know-about-threads/

    @Mastodon Good explainer and questions and answers are not fluffy PR and pretty hard hitting and honest about the situation.

  • @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.

    @Mastodon In short, it means nothing?

    @Mastodon This is great. What this sounds like is that when Thread gets federated, we can follow those users on Mastodon to bypass all of Meta's ad and sponsored garbage.

    @Mastodon There were rumours regarding payments from Meta to various instances, which are difficult to confirm or deny due to the NDAs. Could you set the record straight? Is Mastodon gGmbH receiving any funds from Meta or anyone connected to Meta? Will Mastodon gGmbH commit to never taking funds from Meta or anyone connected to Meta?
