It’s Mastodon, it’s Threads, it’s the future, and it’s extremely confusing

    There’s already some funky interoperability… But it’s not pretty.

    I noticed a Masto post in my subscribed feed recently. It looked fine to me but I’m on Jerboa so I don’t know if that makes a difference?

    I’ve never understood why anyone wants to follow other people though. Things, hobbies etc? Yes. Individuals? No thank you.

      Yeah, that’s why Reddit was the only platform I ever got into. And now Lemmy.

      Obviously a post on Lemmy will look like a Lemmy post, but the interoperability is kinda cursed when you look into how it actually ends up working.
