How to cross-post your Threads posts to the fediverse


You can now post on the Threads and be seen in the fediverse.

In late March, Meta’s Threads introduced a beta feature that allows users from the US, Canada, or Japan to cross-post and view likes from Mastodon and, presumably, other federated social networks. On the web version, tap the two lines in the upper right, then select Settings > the Account tab > Fediverse sharing. How significant this is depends on how well cross-posting works in the future, how smooth the process becomes, and what kinds of security measures are put into place to prevent bad actors from using it to invade servers that are meant to be safe spaces, among other issues.
