Adam Mosseri:

Second, threads posted by me and a few members of the Threads team will be available on other fediverse platforms like Mastodon starting this week. This test is a small but meaningful step towards making Threads interoperable with other apps using ActivityPub — we’re committed to doing this so that people can find community and engage with the content most relevant to them, no matter what app they use.

Elon Musk: "Hold my beer"

The difference is twitter is just another big social media platform. Elon Musk isn't potentially trying to ruin an open source federated alternative that fixes a lot of the problems with social media. He's just messing around with and tanking a big corpo social media site.

So I honesty don't really care about twitter as it will get us more users if he burns it down, if the Zuck doesn't ruin us first.

Basically twitter isn't a threat to us and could actually be a big help.

Threads could ruin everything we've worked for.
