Meta announced that users on Threads will be able to see fediverse replies on other posts besides their own. In addition, posts that originated through the Threads API, like those created via third-party apps and scheduling services, will now be syndicated to the fediverse.

    Blocking everyone and every community you see from Facebook’s new parasite social media could be good, me thinks.

          It’s not just a matter of blocking Threads users.

          Facebook is coming on here to slurp up data I don’t want them to have, and enriching their own Threads ecosystem with Fediverse content they haven’t lifted a finger to create.

          Not to mention, when Threads users are able to fully interact in the Fediverse, do you really want that particular bunch to create noise in your communities? I don’t. There’s a reason why I avoid Facebook in all its forms.

            Uh… this fediverse stuff is all on the public internet. Facebook could be slurping it up just as easily without joining at all.
