 Understanding what Threads is doing with the fediverse is important to everybody working on social media protocols. @681cc4f4 was invited to visit Meta and has a very through write up worth reading: nostr:note1uza7vwt6l64wfz2dqxm0zpzh825tkm6rvw3xardmje0wktvxdxrq7qqeg8

@681cc4f4 was my co-founder on Planetary, the secure scuttlebutt app I worked on before pivoting to Nos and Nostr. He’s very insightful, if a bit long winded. 

I’m going to a foocamp hosted by meta next month, hopefully I’ll be able to ask additional questions and keep talking to folks and learning. Getting the big tech companies on board with open social protocols is potentially both dangerous and very powerful. 
 can't see it, is it on some specific relay or something? 
 May need to be rebroadcasted. 
 link is from activitypub so you gotta connect to wss://relay.mostr.pub 
 I turned that off because most of what’s there is drivel. 
 the only way we can connect to mastodon peeps and threads peeps (later) 🤷🏻‍♂️ 
 I simple man... #ActivityPub bad... #Nostr good. 
 So do you block anybody on nostr with a nip-05 from mostr.pub? Nostr is part of the fediverse, all of your nostr content is syndicated over ActivityPub.  
 But is that a bullet point to the credit of ActivityPub?

A bridge connecting two neighborhoods is beautiful, and I am glad to have it. But I still prefer the rules of the neighborhood thay I live in. Even if I do visit some houses in the other neighborhood across the bridge.
