   Mastodon.social seems like it can talk to Threads fine, but nothing I do makes it work.
   
   curl -H "accept: application/activity+json" -H "user-agent: http.rb/5.1.1 (Mastodon/4.2.2; +https://mastodon.social/)" https://www.threads.net/ap/users/mosseri/
   
   Even pretending to be Mastodon.social's user-agent 404s. I wonder if they have an IP whitelist.

     @cjd No posts, but I was able to successful follow mosseri from a mastodon.social account.

     Do you see any actual posts coming across? I poked around for a minute and it looks like profiles are syncing but not posts. Maybe related (?)

     It's possible that they're being careful and only whitelisting for a while, but on the other hand it looks like their shit is still kinda broken because posts aren't syncing as far as I can see.

     @alex@gleasonator.com @cjd@pkteerium.xyz
     I can view and follow @mosseri@www.threads.net from my Mastodon, Miskey and Pixelfed instances, but not from my Soapbox.

     @ryanhe @cjd I wonder if a fresh Mastodon server could discover the profile today. It doesn't make sense why the curl command doesn't work.

     @mkljczk All Mastodon servers seem to have access to it, even widely blocked ones like https://gameliberty.club/web/@mosseri@threads.net
     
     I wonder if it only worked yesterday and doesn't anymore. There's no other explanation for why my curl request doesn't work, unless I'm missing a header.

     @alex @cjd i can see and follow from other relatively small mastodon and pixelfed instances. Can't find from my pleroma instance.

     @luca @cjd That's consistent to what I see in curl.

     @alex Maybe they require signed requests, but then Pleroma with Mastodon user agent should work. But it doesn't

     @mkljczk I'm trying to fetch it from a local Mastodon install and it's not working. This may be a waste of time. I wish we could at least see what the actor object is supposed to look like.

     I'm trying this from a real Mastodon at animalliberation.social and it comes back nil.

     @alex If it's authorized fetch, then it won't work from a local install
