Joe Biden's official account is now connected to the Fediverse, thanks to Threads. We'll see if anything comes of it.

Um, yay?

    For now, the integration is a minor gesture, as it’s only a one-way connection from Threads to the Fediverse.

    Could someone explain what this means? It it like he can see us but we can’t see him? I didn’t know the Fediverse / ActivityPub could work like that.

      Opposite way around. We can see him but he can’t see us.

      The reason you can’t see him is because you’re on Lemmy which will only display microblog posts if they’re (1) a reply to a Lemmy post, (2) made from kbin/mbin, or (3) replied to by someone from kbin/mbin (not entirely sure about this one).
