I wish we'd stop spreading this misconception: "The most important way [Threads, Bluesky, and Mastodon] align is they all live on top of open, accessible protocols." https://www.augment.ink/bridges-the-last-network-effect/

Threads doesn't live on an open, accessible protocol. Its actual protocol is Instagram, which is proprietary. That's why, eleven months after Meta started testing federation—and eight months after it started letting fediverse users follow Threads accounts—you still can't follow a Mastodon account directly from Threads.
