@atomicpoet @potus Not directly, people can make bots that do it, the way there are bots that will rebroadcast certain people’s Twitter posts. You can basically have a DMZ for it and let the rest of us defederate from Threads.
It’s not like the POTUS account is going to reply to us if we comment on it anyway!

Nonsense. I'm perfectly capable of receiving the president's messaging via other means, of which there are hundreds.
The threads.net domain will remain blocked by my account. I want nothing to do with a company that sold out its userbase to russia to influence the 2016 election.

@artemesia Sure, you don’t have to follow @potus and you can block Threads. But the bulk of the Fediverse is federating with Threads and will likely continue to federate with it.
