This is the best summary I could come up with:

Threads is rolling out a beta of its fediverse integration in the US, Canada, and Japan.

Threads previewed its fediverse integration earlier this week during the FediForum.

As outlined on its support page, Meta says that you must have a public account to turn on fediverse sharing, which will allow users on other servers to “search for and follow your profile, view your posts, interact with your content, and share your content to anyone on or off their server.”

The beta currently doesn’t let users view replies and follows from the fediverse, for example.

Still, it’s promising to see Threads starting to get into the fediverse after first testing its ActivityPub integration last year.

You can turn on the feature by heading to your Threads account settings, selecting Fediverse sharing (Beta), and following the instructions.
