Eugen Rochko@laurenshof@indieweb.social @quillmatiq@mastodon.social @mackuba@martianbase.net Well, Threads is part of the fediverse, whether people like it or not, it natively speaks ActivityPub. Should be in that left corner.
BorisIt does not natively speak ActivityPub. It can optionally bridge to the Fediverse.
Its core codebase is not โan ActivityPub serverโ and does not internally use AP objects for everything.
Eugen Rochko@bmann.ca@bsky.brid.gy @laurenshof@indieweb.social @quillmatiq@mastodon.social @mackuba@martianbase.net By that logic, Mastodon is not "an ActivityPub server", since it does not internally use AP objects for anything. By that logic nothing speaks ActivityPub "natively". Of course, in reality, it, like Mastodon, does speak ActivityPub natively. I can request a Threads actor and receive the JSON-LD directly from the Threads domain without any bridging services.

้่ๅฎThen why qualify/exclude bridging services?
Eugen Rochko@knowtheory.net@bsky.brid.gy @bmann.ca@bsky.brid.gy @laurenshof@indieweb.social @quillmatiq@mastodon.social @mackuba@martianbase.net Iโm confused by your use of โthenโ. What in my statement relates to bridging services? If you need a bridge to communicate with something, then it doesnโt speak the protocol natively. If you donโt, then it does.
