Reading discussions on the Fediverse about how dangerous it'll be to federate with #Threads.
Also reading discussions on Threads* about how dangerous it'll be to federate with the rest of the Fediverse.
*(I do not actually have a Threads account, but you can still read some public discussions without logging in.)
Something I'd be interested in that I can't seem to find:
A low-powered Linux laptop with an e-ink display, that I could use for long-form writing or coding.
What I've found so far are mostly either
Tablets intended for note-taking (like the ReMarkable or BOOX's various lines)
Higher-end where the e-ink display is an extra (like Lenovo's swivel designs where you rotate the display to use either an OLED or e-ink).
Some of the tablets do have keyboard cases, which would be better than just hooking up a random Bluetooth keyboard, but it doesn't look like I can just install programs on them, except for the Android ones, which aren't going to be ideal for things like coding or running build scripts or anything like that.
The closest I found was the Modos Paper Laptop, but seems to still be in the prototype phase.
Does this form factor exist yet? Am I just having trouble finding them because of the current state of search?
Which may be a feature as far as most GTS and Snac users are concerned!
But I do want Threads to technically be able to federate with most/all other software that uses #ActivityPub, so it can be user/admin choice whether to accept connections from the giant instance...and more importantly, to cut down on the risks of vendor lock-in and EEE.
And I hope more compatible systems will cut down on the "OK, my software federates with itself and Mastodon, I'm done" problem. In some cases there may be bugs on the smaller project's side, and fixing them might also fix issues talking to other small projects.
If Facebook had an issue tracker for threads, someone could open an issue there. If threads was an open source project, we could look at the code and immediately know what's up, but... 🤷
This is interesting: In Snac, I can see a Threads post boosted via a Mastodon account. It's a post from a few days ago on the account I tried to follow earlier. And according to the timeline and API, I am following them from Snac. But they aren't showing up on the list of people I follow.
This suggests that Snac is able to interact with Threads posts, and is able to follow Threads accounts, but runs into trouble retrieving Threads profiles.
Partial federation is a more interesting problem IMO than no federation, so now I really want to take a look at the logs!
Hi, #snac author here. I've just read your message and tested following a Threads account, and the process seems to complete correctly, the log messages report the correct dialog and the account appears in my being-followed list (I still haven't received any message from that account, but it's still early, I think). What may have happened in your case is that the Accept message from Threads to your Follow request was lost or not sent for whatever reason, so for snac it's a follow not (yet) confirmed.
Can you tell me what Threads account are you trying with? I'll investigate.
