Threads has rolled out seeing replies from other platforms, filling one of the biggest holes in their fediverse support. Nice to see the progress. There is still quite a bit to do (replies to those replies, moving accounts) but it feels much closer to complete.

@manton curious if you have an eye toward including replies to cross-posted items on hosted blogs in the same way you do with Bluesky? Or is that unique to AT Protocol?

@bryan I'm considering it. It is possible with the Threads API.

@rmdes I'm not sure. It would be nice not to have to jump over to the web interface for that.

@manton 🙏🙏🙏

@manton Every time Threads integration takes a step forward I let out a breath I didn't realize I was holding. It's going to be interesting to see how fully Meta/FB connects with the fediverse before it begins trying to screw it all up. (I hope they get very, very far.)

@manton following and mentions as well.

@cdevroe I forgot about following until I after I posted… So basic, weird that it’s still not there.

@manton How about cross-posted replies for Mastodon too like Bluesky?

@manton also, it appears replies don’t show publicly on Threads but only to the poster? They still have a lot of work left to do it seems.

@moonmehta I'm considering it. I think I'm going to add Threads replies first, because federation on Threads is still much more limited than Mastodon.

@manton Thanks, I look forward to having it. A reason for being able to cross-post replies to Mastodon from Micro.blog is it will allow people to specifically maintain a Mastodon account, which has many use cases that Micro.blog either doesn’t serve or doesn’t intend too.
