"Well, ackshually..."
(they've not enabled ActivityPub yet, so technically not fedi... yet. But not only are they the biggest instance - it's larger than the entire fedi userbase put together)
I'm going to repost here what I just write wrote elsewhere:
Meta's presence is corrosive by its' very nature.
There will be a sugar rush up front, diabetes down the road.
They WILL find a way to insert themselves more severely if and when this thing grows.
The power of the Fedi is that YOU, personally can block the whole domain with a click and it will never enter your feed. Don't sweat the little stuff and Threads is definitely the little stuff.
They did not, no. However, they do share accounts, so if you have Instagram already, you can just download the Threads app, open it, and immediately sign in with the same saved credentials as Instagram.
Isn’t truth social activitypub based? Thread is going to be much bigger than truth, but yesterday I bet that this could have been said about the platform a disgraced former president uses for temper tantrums.
"Look we are using ActivityPub, aren't we cool?"
"Look you can access other federated instances on our platform, isn't that cool?"
"All the best content is on our platform now, so we are removing the federation aspect"
