I don’t understand how ActivityPub works that well and I haven’t used Threads so maybe I just doing get it.

But why would we have to worry about defederating Threads when it’s a Twitter clone? It doesn’t have communities and such so I would think it’s not compatible. We’re not federated with Mastodon instances right? This seems like something for Mastodon to worry about. How is a Lemmy instance refusing to federate with Threads relevant?

    How does it work the other way round? If I wanted to follow someone on Mastodon from Lemmy, can I do that?

      I don’t think there’s any way since there’s no way to follow a user in Lemmy regardless of what platform they’re using.

        Fair enough, I wondered if there was a way to make a user appear as a community somehow but I’ve never found it.
