As you've probably heard, Threads (a fairly new social network from Facebook's parent company Meta) is testing integration with the fediverse. Depending on how you look at it, it's a great opportunity, a huge threat, or both!

Back in May and June, when Threads' first announced their plans, there were quite a few polls on Mastodon about people's reactions, most showing opinions split roughly equally. How do people feel today?

I know. That doesn't mean they'd both have to federate if one did. I don't hate Zuckerberg like I hate Musk and Spez so I'm fine if Threads federates

I think the problem here is that Zuck the Fuck enabled genocide of brown-skinned people so white-skinned people half a world away don't give a shit. But ELON BROKE TWITTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

And Twitter was important to the white folk half a world away, so naturally Elon is Teh Devvil and Zuck the Fuck is just a nerd.
