I’m on Instagram and have a bunch of followers, around 200K.
SO - My plan is to squat as the IG users pick up Threads. Most people will just follow the same people from IG (Meta encourages it and it fills your feed fast).
My follower count on Threads should grow just from that alone, right?
THEN - Facebook finally federates, right?
THEN! Facebook allows for account migration to Mastodon.
First… I migrate my @renwillis@mstdn.social account to Threads.
Finally… Immediately migrate all my followers from Threads back to mstdn.social.
Suddenly potentially 200K are following a Mastodon account!!! MWUH-HAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !technology@lemmy.world
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Yes! BUTTTTT I have a master plan!!!
HERE ME OUT!
