     @HistoPol @ploum I don’t yet: will likely update it as big structurally new things occur….

     @tchambers
     Any ideas on their (#Threads) game plan for the #Fediverse?

     Why are they moving so slowly now?

     @HistoPol I really think Fediverse presents huge technical and managerial challenges to the centralized systems, and it takes time to sort all of it out, to sort out if it’s even possible to integrate.

     Technically, ActivityPub is not a lightweight protocol. It takes a lot of resources to manage all the streams going left and right without the computational efficiency of just operating in-house.

     Managerially, I don’t think any centralized service has really figured out how to integrate the Wild West into the more controlled environment their users expect, not even getting into moderation issues.

     I think they’re moving slowly because there are real challenges and problems that have to be solved, and it takes time to solve them.

     @volkris
     That sounds like a very reasonable analysis of the corporate SM giants' tech challenges in the face of the #Fediverse.
     Thank you, Volkris.
     Good to hear from you again.🤗
