They previously announced that they would federate with ActivityPub, but yesterday we learned that it won't happen for "three months." With all the European regulatory issues and other factors, I'll bet it will be a lot longer than that. In fact, I'd be surprised if we ever see full federation capability.

What I heard some people said about the fediverse was that before email was controlled by big corporations you can host your own email and no issues. Nowadays its much harder for a regular person to do this because big corporations took control of the federated email. So to my understanding even this social networks are in danger of the same thing happening. Please anyone correct me if I am wrong.

Does Meta entering the Fediverse mean that they'll federate with Lemmy instances or just Mastodon instances?
If they do both-ways federation (I've heard rumors of it being one-way only) it should theoretically be both Lemmy and Mastodon, but it will work better with Mastodon because they're both for the same purpose (i.e. Twitter-like apps).

I'm just gonna bully the shit out of them, like the blue checkers on twitter.
Sign up for a real instance, fucking nerds.
Didn't know that Threads is compatible with Mastodon. So they use the same protocol?
