First, “reaching out” is different from actually federating completely.
Second, i was referring to lemmy in particular. I know mastodon and lemmy are both part of the fediverse, but lemmy <> threads federation is a different conversation than mastodon <> threads.
Okay, let me specify: You said “Meta isn’t even thinking about the fediverse at this point […]” which is demonstrably false. They reached out, so they’re thinking about it.
this is why i find all the talk of “defederate threads” on lemmy a bit premature.
Meta isn’t even thinking about the fediverse at this point, they’re just using it as a buzzword. Their focus is on growth.
If that was the case they wouldn’t have reached out to Mastodon instance owners a while ago before the launch.
