     @dansup Is Threads showing Fediverse replies at all yet? I didn't think they were. I thought they were only showing likes.

     @dansup @pixelfed Oh but I thought Meta were our friends now. Isn’t that what the Mastodon folks are saying? 🤔

     @dansup @pixelfed but an expected one, I don't expect billionaires to easily relinquish control of the for-profit social media monsters they've created.

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

     @dansup

     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?

     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.

     @dansup @pixelfed #Facebook made #WhatsApp block links to #Telegram in 2016: https://www.androidpolice.com/2016/09/09/whatsapp-is-blocking-telegram-links-in-the-android-app/

     This was not a bug. It took getting caught and called out by tech press for them to quietly back this out.

     @dansup I tested this and I did not got blocked or anything. https://www.threads.net/@mogoh_viol/post/C4xsvpKMZb8 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.

     @dansup @pixelfed 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.

     @dansup @pixelfed 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.

     @PersistentDreamer Pixelfed is an ActivityPub-powered social platform that @dansup is developing. It's focused on photo and image sharing. It's interoperable with Mastodon, so you can follow Pixelfed users from here if you want to. https://pixelfed.org

     The above screenshot documents and incident where a post on Meta's Threads was automatically marked as spam for mentioning Pixelfed. This is likely because Pixelfed is a competitor to Instagram and Meta is petty.
