A Threads beta lets you share to Mastodon and other fediverse services

Fediverse support in Meta Threads is up and running in beta. Mark Zuckerberg said on Thursday that adult Threads users in eligible countries can turn on sharing to the fediverse — including Mastodon and other ActivityPub services.

The fediverse is a collection of decentralized online communities (servers) that speak the common “language” of ActivityPub. In a post from December, Zuckerberg framed the integration as a way to let the young platform’s content reach more eyeballs. Head to Account Settings > Fediverse sharing and follow the instructions to opt in and check it out.
