Alert to that shift, Meta promises to eventually link all its platforms to the “fediverse” — scores of other social media sites, whose users’ posts are visible on all sites, and can be liked and replied to across multiple apps.
All of Meta’s platforms are going to be federated? I’ve only been hearing about this happening with Threads. Does this mean that Facebook and Instagram are going to start using ActivityPub, as well?

Honestly I’m not holding my breath of any of it. I’m firmly in the “I’ll believe it when I see it” camp.
i mean fingers crossed for that so that maybe we don’t have to use facebook events
… but also fuck meta
It was the only way to make anyone use the metaverse.
