iamdtms, My first (and only one) post on #Threads:
https://www.threads.net/
jynersolives, The "federation" of #Threads hasn't brought about the Fedipocalypse, has it?
kagan, @jynersolives I don't think anyone* was arguing that it would happen within a few months. The alarm is that Threads is the beginning of an Embrace, Extend, and Extinguish campaign, and those typically take years. We shouldn't expect any major problems this soon.
- okay, maybe a few overly-alarmist people who didn't really understand the situation, but not by any means the main bulk of people against Threads/Meta
jynersolives, @kagan There is no EEE „campaign“. That’s just hyperbole.
lucamondini, Italian Come va? È un po' che non bazzico da queste parti. Devo dire che, come contenuti, #Threads non mi dispiace affatto. Dopo un po' di tweak, l'algoritmo (sì, proprio lui) sembra funzionare piuttosto bene.
Spero di riuscire prima o poi ad usare un solo client per entrambi i social. So che #Buffer sta lavorando ad un’integrazione con le API di Threads: vediamo.
filippodb, Italian @lucamondini a breve threads sarà federato per intero e quindi ti basterà usare l'app mastodon 😉
Mastodon è federabile pure con bluesky ( basta seguire @bsky.brid.gy@bsky.brid.gy 😉 ) ed è federato pure con nostr dove puoi seguire snowden, quello vero, non i farlocchi del fediverso:@84dee6e676e5bb67b4ad4e042cf70c@mostr.pub
#threads #fediverso #mastodon #nostr #mostr #bluesky #MastodonUno
lucamondini, Italian @filippodb grazie Filippo. Come dicevo a Quinta, il mio obiettivo è proprio quello. :)
cheeaun, 👀 So, this is what they've been working on: https://www.threads.net/@mosseri/post/C7CXVYIpI0G
Article: https://techcrunch.com/2024/05/16/threads-testing-pinned-columns-on-the-web-like-tweetdeck/
Observations, judging from screenshots:
- It allows pinning accounts 🤔
- It introduces gray background to fill the white space for this layout instead of the single-column version 🤷♂️
- Corner radius got way more rounded, including the images/videos, for some reason…
- Make sense for them to build it as there won't be any 3rd-party #Threads clients.
box464, @cheeaun It looks familiar somehow. Catch up next? 🧐
cheeaun, @box464 they already have 'For you', so… don't think it'll be next 🤔 Lists probably make more sense 🤔
dansup, threads new pinned columns design is gorgeous
developerjustin, I want to be more active about encouraging #Threads users to federate.
To that end, I asked @nationalkidneyfoundation to federate this morning and bring their good work around kidney disease and transplant to the #fediverse.
Welcome, @nationalkidneyfoundation!
freezr, A little bird told me that when #Threads will be totally into #ActivityPub then #Mastodon will mysteriously lose the ability to block entire domains/servers... 🐦
mobileatom, Threads is testing cross-posting from Instagram globally. #Threads #Instagram
Posted into THE FEDIVERSE VS. CORPORATE SOCIAL MEDIA @the
multiverseofbadness, My quick reaction on #Threads after one day -
No shocker - I hate the way it incorporates with the #fediverse as a whole and, at least currently, feels like it's working in (ish) bad faith.. that may change, but for now they are simply using us as potential eyeballs to boost their engagement numbers (esp for their "big accounts")
BUT...
From my experience, it beats the absolute pants off of #BlueSky in terms of actual "topic" interaction
Your miles may vary...
multiverseofbadness, There are toxic folk here for sure, but the majority seem to leave quickly because of a smaller userbase, domain blocking, and unwillingness to "feed" them.
I have a small but great handful of folks I'm quite active here with .. it's sadly reduced over the last year, but the interaction here for me has always been more positive as a whole.. think I'll hang a round a bit longer.. 😂
Tim_Eagon, @multiverseofbadness @jacklaridian There's a strong core here that can be foundational for later, but some folks have left and some check-in periodically (I turn on notifications for when they post, so I don't miss them).
darren, Is anyone aware of a bot that counting the number of federated #Threads accounts? Just curious about the #Fediverse uptake by Threads users. Out of their puported hundred million users, I would anectdotally guess about 1000 users have voluntarily federated, but maybe you know better than me?
FinchHaven, There is this, for what it's worth
"Popular Fediverse Accounts: The most popular accounts across the fediverse"
Here: https://fedidb.org/popular-fediverse-accounts
It claims to cover both #Threads and the #Fediverse / #Mastodon
I can't comment on the accuracy or credibility of the data collection methods used
darren, @FinchHaven I may have to roll my own bot. I'd like to know generally how many #Threads accounts have voluntarily federated. It seems to me that very few have.
darnell, Yay! My #Flipboard account is federating: @darnell
Like #Threads & #Ghost, Flipboard is beta testing #ActivityPub on its main site.
I believe Flipboard will prove to be a counterweight to Threads and a prime location for news & pundits (as #Meta does not really desire the latter two on their platforms).
badrihippo, Found this in the wild. It links to a #Threads account 👀
https://robkendal.co.uk/blog/how-to-build-a-restful-node-js-api-server-using-json-files/
Noptisun, @badrihippo isnʼt even federated yet.
badrihippo, @Noptisun lol!
salvomic, Italian
lifeofguenter, #threads is now properly working with #convocasa - I did not do anything so must have been something in their side. Thanks @paul for debugging back then though.
paul, @lifeofguenter
👍 You're welcome.Glad things are working.
twen, French Now that #threads is connected to ActivityPub, looking at the most popular accounts : the top 20 contains 13 Threads accounts ! Most, if not all are americans. What a diversity 😐 https://fedidb.org/popular-fediverse-accounts #fediverse
wjmaggos, Why isn't @ezraklein federating? #threads
jglypt, @wjmaggos Yeah I don’t have the option, but tbf on the website you sent, the screenshot says ‘beta’ so probably rolling out.
wjmaggos, I didn't know till I read the article but it's only US, Canada and Japan for now. but it should be everyone there afaik.

JFreeWolny, Polish mamo co te threadsy :D w zeszylm tugodniu wpuscilo mnei normalnie nie rzadajac juz instalowania apki na telefonie (czego bym i tak nie zrobił), dzis ... dzis wlazlem ale musialem zalogowac sie haslem bo instagramem nie dawalo rady.
To nie jest beta to jest głęboka alfa. W srodku oczywiście nic ciekawego i iterface z d* wzięty. Ta to ludzi z twittera nie wyciagniecie :>
mima, I don't like this move by #Threads. Limiting who can do #quoteposts pretty much defeats the purpose of quote posts in the first place.
Oh well, I'm confident that #Misskey will not adopt this beyond not allowing blocked users to quote a post by the user blocking them (which I disagree with btw), so this will not affect me thankfully and I can still quote Threads users as long as they haven't blocked me. :seija_coffee:
Jain, @mima Quote Posts is a better version of link preview, even Mastodon Clients (Mastodon doesnt have Quoted Posts on Server side) does Quoted Posts exactly like that. So preventing it is stupid and wont get adopted on all of the Server Softwares
guti, #Threads is bringing an option for users to limit quote-posting. Great to see.

So preventing it is stupid since it wont/cant get adopted on all of the Fediverse Servers, so having that "Feature" lead to a false sense of Security
herbsman, Polish Dzień dobry!
Niewiele jest bardziej satysfakcjonujących komend od "git push".
Zapowiadana ostatnio aktualizacja Herbsmana pojawiła się w Internecie. Zawiera wszystko opisywane w poście pod tytułem "Raport z pracy I", czyli zmiany w menu, wyszukiwarkę oraz nowy dział i nowy artykuł zawierający opisy doświadczeń z Sinicuichi.
Do czasu, aż ogarnę się z instagramem i fb, usunąłem linki do nich ze strony głównej bloga. Ani trochę nie odnajduję się na tych platformach, ale dzisiaj to wciąż najlepszy sposób na dotarcie do szerszej grupy odbiorców.
Zarejestrowałem się też na #Threads . Podobno ma być kiedyś zintegrowane z protokołem Activity Pub, ale mam przeczucie, że wiele instancji Mastodona odetnie się od serwerów Mety.
Byłoby miło, gdyby istniała możliwość automatycznego publikowania treści z pol.social na Threads, abym nie musiał się tam logować i rejestrować. Widzę, że Buffer oferuje obsługę Mastodona, więc może jest na to szansa. Przetestuję i dam znać.
Miłego popołudnia!
Pozdrawiam,
Archer
svmetasearch, Polish @herbsman: tutaj założyciel oraz SNM SVMetaSearch - nie twierdzę, że Facebook czy Instagram są potrzebne. Wręcz przeciwnie, można założyć, że każdy projekt, o ile dobrze promowany, dosięgnie również efekt tzw. marketingu wirusowego. Co za tym idzie - benefituje platforma, która wcześniej była bardzo niszowa. Taki win-win dla obu stron.
herbsman, Polish @svmetasearch Ciekawi mnie czy istnieje gdzieś strategia "wyciągania" ludzi z korporacyjnych social media. Poradnik odpowiadający na pytania w stylu - jak rozmawiać ze znajomymi o #Fediverse , przede wszystkim z tymi, którzy nie są biegli w obsłudze komputera. O korzyściach płynących z dołączenia do tej sieci, które nie skupiałyby się na prywatności czy wolności słowa, bo niestety te argumenty nie przemawiają do "zwykłych ludzi".
Ciekawi mnie też, co zyskują twórcy treści spędzając czas na publikowaniu na np. #polsocial . Oczywiście istnieje mniejsza szansa (niemal zerowa) na utratę kanału, ale co poza tym? Stosunek ryzyka do zysku wciąż przemawia na korzyść Mety czy TikToka.
Jest tutaj tak wielu uzdolnionych osób, więc pewnie ktoś już na takie pytania odpowiedział. Muszę poszukać, jakiś pomysł gdzie zacząć?
eklektikos, Italian Io me li ricordo ancora quelli che mesi fa, nel #Fediverso, "#Threads è già morto". 😆
Che Threads venga su bene è una cosa positiva per il Fediverso, soprattutto quando Markino vorrà monetizzare (perché lo farà) e gli utenti si accorgeranno che il Fediverso non è solo Threads (un po' come i tromboni che continuano a ripetere che il Fediverso non è solo #Mastodon). 😆 😉

elCelio, Italian @filippodb @eklektikos come fa con whatsapp?
filippodb, Italian @eklektikos probabilmente finchè saranno in fase di espansione non metteranno publicità, rimarrà un'oasi pulita per incentivare la migrazione da twitter.
Potranno andare avanti anche anni senza mettere pubblicità fino a distruggere twitter e avere un monopolio dei social.
e infatti la federazione col fediverso servirà propriio come scudo antitrust per difendersi da eventuali accuse, mica scemo il zucchino 😁
Norobiik, Earlier this week, #BusinessInsider reported that according to app analytics firm #Apptopia, Threads now has more daily active users in the #US than #X.
#MarkZuckerberg says #Threads has 150 million monthly active users
https://techcrunch.com/2024/04/24/mark-zuckerberg-says-threads-has-150-million-monthly-active-users/
j, I'd rather just wipe #Threads away. Will toilet paper work for that?

AlbertoQ, Spanish Mi modesta opinión:
Que #Threads sea interoperable con plataformas del #Fediverso con #ActivityPub no la convierte en una plataforma del Fediverso. Porque el Fediverso, por su naturaleza, es una plétora de plataformas alternativas, descentralizadas, autónomas y FLOSS, con una ética antagónica a la de Zuckerberg. Threads es una red corporativa de Meta y no encaja en el Fediverso, aunque se conecte a él. Es como un fan del reguetón en un concierto punk porque le regalaron una entrada.
