Neat trick.
_... longing look across from Lemmy. _
Someone want to explain how to get followers on there? Feel like posting to the wind on that site?

This is Microsoft's playbook, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embrace,_extend,_and_extinguish, it was use by Google to kill off XMPP - https://www.disruptivetelephony.com/2013/05/did-google-really-kill-off-all-xmppjabber-support-in-google-hangouts-it-still-seems-to-partially-work.html, now it will be used by Facebook to try to kill the Fediverse.
Why is this not more widely talked about? Please share this.
This issue is going to divide the fediverse. You've got instances defederating from Threads, and instances defederating from instances that won't defederate from Threads. I feel like there are going to be two clearly divided and disconnected sides to the fediverse now.
