oh.... I saw a meme about this and thought it was just a joke.
Don't forget to report it inside Play Store. All of these permissions are not required, thus the app is breaking store rules.

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.

Jesus Christ Zuck. It looks like a lizard is running a mammalian study
This is why I ditched Facebook many years ago. The first time they started to change their TOS and privacy stuff I noped out.
Don't allow Zuck and the billionaire anti-democracy tech bros into Federation.
Yeah, he's a big fan of access. May as well just make an extra category marked "everything".
