The recent Threads controversy brought this question to my mind.

It is certain that such a thing will not happen, but if it was in theory; what would your reactions be? Also are your views on this similar to your views on Threads?

    Federation protocols can be implemented on top of other systems too. For example you can probably fork lemmy to make it also federate with the matrix protocol to some extent, or the other way around.

      Probably yes. Since ActivityPub is a content transfer protocol just like any other APIs.
