Meta is treading carefully, doing a phased implementation while continuing conversations with Fediverse leaders. This will give the company more time to iron out some of the integration kinks. “Do we adapt the protocol to be able to support this?” Lambert asks. “Or do we try to do some kind of interesting, unique implementation?” For example, Threads supports audio posts, a feature not currently supported within ActivityPub, so Meta is experimenting with “federating” a text transcription of the original post instead of the audio version.

It was never a good idea federating with Threads

      did you have anything technical to add to the discussion, or just your ephemeral fear?

        Who is fearful? I glanced over this thread and I didn’t see a lot of fear; it’s mostly just people observing the dishonesty.

        Maybe there is or isn’t a reason to worry about Facebook coming into the community, but discussing it (at least as I’ve seen in this thread) doesn’t mean either anger or fear. It’s just discussing. It’s a good thing to do.

          if you have something to add, add it. if youre going to go throw more moral arguments against billion dollar companies maybe go bark up a more sympathetic tree. im looking for technical information, not moral indignation.
