Threads’ roadmap for integrations with the fediverse, aka the network of decentralized apps that includes Twitter/X rival Mastodon and others, has been revealed. A new blog post by Tom Coates, the co-founder of an older decentralized app called Planetary, details the events of a December meeting at Meta’s offices where the Threads team had reached out to members of the fediverse community to get feedback about the Instagram-led project to take on X with a decentralized app that will eventually interoperate with others in the fediverse by way of the ActivityPub protocol.

lemmy.ml is the flagship instance. that's like asking what mastodon.social does for the fediverse.

Yeah what do they? Just their size? So if Threads brings in huge amounts of federation users that'd automatically make them relevant and useful to have around? Size matters, especially when it comes to your federated instance?

it's not their size. they are literally the developers.
