Sounds like Meta wants to force you to give them your phone number.

    I wonder if they will ever implement ActivityPub and federate. I know, there’s fear of “Embrace, Extend and Extinguish”, but still, that would allow privacy-minded people to follow Threads users without giving them such data by using Mastodon, CalcKey and other micro-blogging apps.

      Yayy, fuck up your instance and use it for a damn Meta proxy.

      I hope if they try that the instances simply defederate. And I like Federation and want more people on here, and I miss the variety of non tech content. But still, no thanks

      People actively choosing a new network by Meta are just too stupid to be worth breaking our ecosystem, period.

          I know it sounds like that. But you may keep contacts, but this only makes sense if they also use the same new app. There is so little reason to use it
