Putting the feelers out there for my partner that runs a business on IG, is thinking about threads, and eventually wanting to move to mastodon.
Due to some of the word being that if you delete the threads app, that your IG account also gets deleted or something....
They are curious about what happens to their threads, and IG accounts, would they get erased if migrating away from threads to a mastodon instance?

How am I supposed to get help if you're blocking the accounts that are selling drugs???

Threads deepens its ties to the open social web (fediverse)
Meta's Threads is enhancing integration with the fediverse by:
➡️ allowing users to see fediverse replies on others' posts
➡️ syndicating API-originated posts to the fediverse.
This aims to expand Threads' reach and utility, contrasting with X's restrictive API policies. The feature is in beta, with some Mastodon servers preemptively blocking Threads.

Thoughts about the ongoing debate about a symbol for the Fediverse including Meta's Threads icon and a new suggestion using the Unicode asterism character.
Is anyone also on #metathreads and getting posting failures?
Up until now, I've stayed out of the Meta Threads discussion. I'll just say that in the last few months, I've discovered at least 3 folks that I had previously followed on Twitter, and now I'm very happy I can now follow them here on Mastodon. Being able to read their posts here greatly increases my satisfaction on Mastodon.
FWIW, I get the concern about a possible Embrace, Extend, Extinguish play by Meta.
I find it interesting how quickly Threads was adopted. I don’t have an account (yet?) but I wonder if the usual Twitter trash found its way there as well. That was the main reason I stopped using Twitter. #meta #metathreads #threads #twitter

Idea: start a mastodon instance that will federate with #MetaThreads for people whose only goal is to engage with threads users to help them leave Meta and welcome them to the fedi. Name: dumbfucks.social
Re #metathreads v. infosec.exchange
I do not have a strong opinion either way, but I feel [@]jerry*'s handling of this has been reasonable.

Read this thread if blocking #MetaThreads bothers you. And shut up.

Adam Mosseri spells out Threads’ plans for the fediverse | The Verge
https://www.theverge.com/2023/12/15/24003435/adam-mosseri-threads-fediverse-plans
"(...) This is a key one: follower portability. “Eventually, it should also be possible to enable creators to leave Threads and take their followers with them to another app / server,” Mosseri writes. “I believe that it’s important that creators own their relationship with their audience.” (...)"
