Meta rolling into the fediverse like the martians in Mars Attacks.
“Don’t run! We’re you’re your friends!”
Don't forget to report it inside Play Store. All of these permissions are not required, thus the app is breaking store rules.

Jesus Christ Zuck. It looks like a lizard is running a mammalian study

Lol fuck that, I’ll stick with mastodon
I think they're using an instance of mastodon
No. They’re using the fediverse, which includes instances of mastodon, but they are making their own client/web portal/whatever you wanna call it. They’re making their own version of the thing that mastodon is, and their versions will be on the same network that mastodon is on.
I understand that ActivityPub ≠ Mastodon however from their UI it feels like a fork of Mastodon with all the Meta bs on top, i might be wrong but it just feels like they saw the opportunity and took. I say this because of even the naming of the app which seems like a direct reference to the Mastodon threads.

Yeah, he's a big fan of access. May as well just make an extra category marked "everything".
