After months of brainstorming and scheming, Meta is getting closer to releasing a Twitter clone to the world, according to a new report from The Verge. The company’s pitch is simple. Execs claim they will offer “a platform that is sanely run.”

You all may have already heard, but Meta is gearing up to release a Twitter clone (possibly called Threads). The weird part is that they intend to use ActivityPub.

What are your thoughts? And what are the odds that they get de-federated in most instances?

    It’s one of the smartest moves they’ve made in a while, kicking Twitter over as it crashes. Of course, I hope it is de-federated because otherwise Meta will be monetizing data from other instances, guaranteed.
