Now that threads has started to enable federation, we may need to update this section, or add a new one. Does anyone have any reputable sources that talk about the federation stuff? Semitones (talk) 02:22, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There are plenty of mentions in secondary sources so IMO a paragraph is fine. Just need to make sure it matches what secondary sources are saying, which I just did. Personally I don't like the hype either but what can ya do, the media has talked about it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ pandakekok9 (talk) Resist internet censorship in the Philippines!12:31, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Indeed, I have checked on Microsoft Store, Google Play, Apple which goes with your undiscussed page moves (which you were warned about). I suspect that new name must have come on recently and once I noticed the move log had the entries of two occurrences of reverted page moves included, I am aware of the new name for this platform. This may still need further discussion from other users or WP:RM activated for the article. Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 20:43, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@TheMasterMind321: We don't move stable articles whenever names change. Our naming guideline is, for most cases, WP:COMMONNAME – i.e., we go with what the majority of sources use. In particular, common names are preferred over official names – and thus we have an article titled United Kingdom, not "The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland"; Soviet Union, not "Union of Soviet Socialist Republics"; France, not "French Republic"; and so on.
Here, the vast majority of sources call the app Threads. I'm yet to see a secondary source that would refer to it as "Threads, an Instagram app". Consequently, Wikipedia will continue referriing to the app as Threads, just as we keep using the established name Twitter, not "X".
Please do NOT move such a highly visible page without seeking consensus first. And do NOT redo edits when you get reverted. Read WP:BRD, it's a good advice. — kashmīrīTALK21:16, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I just want some fact checking if meta actually, and please tell me if I’m wrong, but did meta take the source code from Twitter from when Elon made it open source, and they made threads off of it?
Just wondering about this, as I don’t want to tell everyone that this was the case when in reality they probably never did this, or this never actually happened.
