Threads is officially starting to test ActivityPub integration ( www.theverge.com )
Threads is making moves for Mastodon integration ( www.threads.net )
I have my problems with Meta, but I'm hoping this will help Mastodon grow

Mastodon's Founder & CEO Gives His Thoughts on Meta's Threads ( blog.joinmastodon.org )
