Sad to read historians.social is closing down! 🙁🙁 Hope the active members there can find a new home in another instance.

I know PixelFed exists but it's all just text and video and images at the end of the day - so what if the Mastodon interface just looked like Instagram and then you could sign in using your existing Mastodon account... a concept:

This is just hacked together real quick, but should I work on this to make it a real thing?

I still have a #Threads and #Instagram account for oslo.town and sometimes log in to see if I can lure people away and over to #Mastodon. 🥷🥷

Some people I follow from Instagram, seem to have enabled the option to "Also share on..." Threads. 🤔🤔

I saw this because they're sharing their personal photos of their kids and holidays and stuff on Insta and it cross-posts to Threads, publicly. 😵‍💫😵‍💫

I wonder if they know...

A screenshot from Instagram (which I specifically had to install to check to see if this was the case) showing the option buried away in the publish settings which reads "also shared on..." and the available options are Threads and Facebook.
