I'm already seeing EEE (Embrace, Extend, Extinguish) user experiences from Threads/Bluesky on Mastodon. People are responding to content from there, linking to content there, but if you aren't on the other platform you don't see the content, the links don't work, you can't see what they're replying to, etc.

By embracing connectivity to these platforms, the Fediverse is choosing to be a second class citizen on corporate platforms.

@smeg I'm mostly fine with that. Misskey, and even other Mastodon instances often have features that display improperly or not at all on my instance/app, but I'd rather see what I can here.

I like that I can reply to posts from Threads, and that if you look for me on BlueSky you can find my bridged account.

Sure, I think it would be better if everyone was on community instances, federated with one, rich protocol, but not everyone wants that experience.

@smeg@assortedflotsam.com to be fair you can totally see and interact with threads content from the fediverse just fine, they actually don't restrict much at all... bluesky I have no idea about, nobody I care about or talk with actually uses it lol
