Ugh. Threads keeps adding Fediverse features that are only benefitting themselves.
They can now see our usernames if we follow them and if we like their posts.
Still can't mention us or follow us back...which is the main part that's keeping their integration from being functional.🤦♂️😩
I just want open communication across platforms dammit. It's not that hard. It doesn't take a whole year. One man did it for a platform that he doesn't even work for, in just a few months!

We all knew they'd do it.
We all knew the right move is to defederate.
We all ignored our own warnings.
We all suffer the consequences with suprised pikachu faces.
@parpol@programming.dev not much we can do when you know they were gonna take over the whole protocol.
I'm just a single person wanting to talk to people on those platforms. Defederating them wouldn't have stopped them from doing anything they're doing or plan on doing.
