"One of Meta’s top executives showed employees a preview of the company’s upcoming Twitter competitor during a companywide meeting today" via https://www.theverge.com/2023/6/8/23754304/instagram-meta-twitter-competitor-threads-activitypub
The photo shows what seems to be a fake conversation with @tonyg with the full @mastodon.social handle visible in two places.

Is anyone for real going to federate with them? This is such a dumb move, who would think they care about this? It is a fucking oxymoron, how do they think they are going to make money with this? Jesus, capitalism is truly in autopilot mode at this stage.

Edit:

Meta is talking to celebrities like Oprah and the Dalai Lama about being early users.

WTF, how do they think it's a good idea to ask the fucking monarchist paedophile who just recently was discovered licking a fucking child a good idea? Facebook can't die fast enough.
