@mosseri just announced that #Threads users can finally follow fediverse accounts. Which means you can now reach 200M people from your Mastodon account without ever using Threads yourself. True decentralization happens on the fediverse!

@Gargron I just knew this. Quite interesting. I sincerely thought we need to wait several more years, I've been dying to find out 🤣
@Gargron @mosseri
It's beginning to look like UseNet that was better than anything that's been created since. I can find things posted decades ago in an instant. I couldn't find what I posted […]
@Gargron @mosseri 🥳
@Gargron @stux @mosseri Are there really 200M users of Threads with federation turned on?
@Gargron @mosseri
Congrats! The more platforms support ActivityPub the better, this is awesome!
@Gargron @mosseri true decentralization would be allowing the fediverso to follow threads accounts. So far meta is the only part reaping the benefits of federation.
@Gargron @mosseri Very nice!
@Gargron @mosseri@threads.net we know you'd like a bigger paycheck, but please don't ruin this place for your ambition.
@Gargron @mosseri@threads.net if we're on mastodon there is a reason. we don't want to reach those 200M people.
@Gargron @mosseri Why can't I follow threads.net/@robert.habeck? #Habeck #TeamHabeck
