Here’s everything we know about it so far:
- It will use ActivityPub.
- It will be a side app of Instagram.
- It will most likely be called Threads.
- Your Instagram verification status will transfer over.
- There will be easy discovery tools in place: Your Instagram followers will be able to follow you on Threads as well (they won’t transfer over automatically).
What do you think?
Correct, you will be able to do that. Also, a wild example: an Instagram user will be able to comment on a Pixelfed post
That’s not bad. I don’t use Instagram, but it would be nice to follow people that are on other services through their Instagram account.
The future is now!
I would not bet on that. In fact, i bet some play money against that: https://manifold.markets/marktweise/will-meta-publish-an-app-which-allo?r=bWFya3R3ZWlzZQ
