Edit: As mentioned below, it appears to be a bug, not intentional!

Threads hiding @pixelfed mentions, not a good look Meta 🙄

Meta is free to do whatever they want on their platforms, and I hope this is a bug.

I hope the fediverse remembers this though! (They have done this on FB and IG to us before)

Oblomov reshared this.

in reply to Daniel Supernault

No they are not. Anti-competitive practices are illegal. I doubt this is intentional though.
in reply to Daniel Supernault

I might be misremembering, but the previous official statements from Meta on Threads integration was that it would start as a one-way push. Meaning that Mastodon clients could follow a Threads user and see the discussion happening on Threads, but that it would NOT merge back any comments Mastodon users would post.

Did they announce the two-way sync should be operational by today?

in reply to Daniel Supernault

Yeah, I was gonna say ... they did this last summer too. Hey wait a second, I'm noticing a pattern here. And just in time for #FediForum too, stay classy #Threads!

I still never got around to using Threads because I hate how much censorship there already is on Instagram and Facebook... but how much freedom bots, right-wing bigots, and trolls seem to have anyway
in reply to Daniel Supernault

means they're afraid!

Have you noticed that fediverse talk gets absolutely no engagement on Threads despite Threads promising to integrate itself with it in the near future. I refuse to believe an average Joe is not interested in decentralization when average Threads commenter is so bent on politics.

Of course it's impossible to test algo timelines unfortunately so we'll never know.

in reply to Daniel Supernault

Meta was, is, and never will be trustworthy. So what's your problem? I've blocked it from Day 1 and do this with other instances not playing fair or spreading BS aswell.
in reply to Daniel Supernault

Is Threads showing Fediverse replies at all yet? I didn't think they were. I thought they were only showing likes.
in reply to Daniel Supernault

They must be really serious about this defederation thing over at Meta. /Sarcasm end
in reply to Daniel Supernault

Wait

Wait

What?

But I thought Peter Cottle was all on about "federation" and fediforum.org/ just this very morning?

Threads doesn't show replies, likes, or profiles from ANY other servers. Their roadmap for joining the fediverse, from the very start, was such that they'll start with one-way federation, and then, sometime later, make it two-way.
in reply to Daniel Supernault

Oh but I thought Meta were our friends now. Isn’t that what the Mastodon folks are saying? 🤔
in reply to Daniel Supernault

but an expected one, I don't expect billionaires to easily relinquish control of the for-profit social media monsters they've created.
in reply to Daniel Supernault

I am SO running out of surprised-faces in modern enshittified tech world.

I've found a lot of flakiness in activity pub comment threads between PeerTube and Mastodon alone, with each federated instance having random seeming replies and sub threads missing. Past behaviour may make malice an easy assumption, but for something like this with new software, bugginess or misguided implementation is much more likely.

The company guilty of selling user data to propaganda machines, doing something that's not a good look? I am shooketh.
in reply to Daniel Supernault

proprietary software will always be proprietary software. Stallman was right, to this day.
in reply to Daniel Supernault

Meta doesn't care about look; only power and control. Isn't this abundantly clear?

Damn... 🤔 sorry, didn't catch that.

You're right, that’s pretty low, and no, it's a filter someone wrote, tested and deployed, tracked in a Jira ticket. It's not a bug.

in reply to Daniel Supernault

erm... I don't remember which Pixelfed instance but I know one of instances has blocked interaction with Threads

this whole Threads ➡️ Mastodon integration seems like a bigger joke every day. I’m not sure what I was thinking - this is still Meta 😞
in reply to Daniel Supernault

that's what you get for threatening their precious Instagram with free market choices 🤷‍♂️
in reply to Daniel Supernault

I tested this and I did not got blocked or anything. threads.net/@mogoh_viol/post/C… So I assume, this was just an accident.

I know everybody loves to hate meta, I am am not a fan either, but I find it hard to believe that they outright ban the word pixelfed.

in reply to Daniel Supernault

The only posts I've ever had removed from Facebook are ones mentioning or showing posts on Mastodon.
in reply to Daniel Supernault

I can understand them defederating from pixelfed instances for commercial or ideological reasons, but actively censoring any mention of a competing service!?

Actually, I can understand Meta doing this, but only in the same way as people who didn’t want to federate with Threads in the first place.

in reply to Daniel Supernault

A "bug", or as they prefer to call it "a happy little accident". Lets not ruin the positive corpo vibes bro!
