This sounds like it’s NOT going to increase mastodon and pixelfed’s reach
It looks like they’re only pushing right now, they’re not allowing Threads users to pull content in from the broader fediverse. Threads content gets exposure on Mastodon, but not the other way around.
Tbf, that's just in regards to the current tests. It could change later on.
So it seems like they're just doing it to push their posts onto instances almost as advertisment. Not a great practice, seems very spammy to me.
Ah, that's unfortunate.
Because the integration isn’t finished yet.
