For anyone wondering if Threads and Facebook at large will be a fine neighbor in the space and compatible with other apps/services in the fediverse: they’re already automatically hiding comments that mention Pixelfed https://mastodon.social/@dansup/112126250737482807

    but my understanding is that since LW will federate with them, any content they host, will end up on meta

    Your understanding is wrong. Instances don’t forward stuff from other instances to other instances. Instances only send their own content directly to the instances they federate with.

      So on a different instance that’s not federated with Meta I can see LW content but not Metas?
