What will be interesting this week is how the #media treat #Meta's new rival to Twitter, #Threads...
I'm expecting a lot of celebratory coverage, which will include either quick sideswipes at #Mastodon for being too difficult to understand, or will not mention the #fediverse at all despite it's/our successes.
The media folk want a system that will pander to them in return, not a decentralised system that's happy to listen & engage with them, but doesn't work to their advantage!
