#Threads user with dotted username (an impossibility in vanilla #Mastodon) spotted in the wild federating with a #Misskey instance (namely, Voskey)! So, does this mean Misskey can handle dotted usernames & thus can further do what #Mastodont?

By the way, that #Threads account belongs to a small Japanese #bakery shop selling #cakes online, in case anyone here wishes to buy from them:
@[email protected]
(Sadly, it seems you cannot yet directly @ them from #Misskey as the dot immediately breaks the ping for being outside the instance-domain-name part, so I had to fake the ping here by making it a #maskedlink to their URL.) -

So, this (the dotted usernames that can federate with other #ActivityPub instances but can't yet be @ pinged from such instances) is a clear example of #EEE being exercised by #Threads upon the #Fediverse.
@[email protected] Your thoughts on this again, as we previously discussed it on #Bluesky? -

Oh, and:but can't yet be @ pinged from such instances) is a clear example of #EEE being exercised by #Threads upon the #Fediverse
Is, well, not a fair example because dotted usernames have been in used years before Threads and the Twitter Migration. As I mentioned, site plugins have been using @[email protected] format.
If dotted usernames are going to be used to build a case of EEE by Meta, then the same argument can be used to accuse all other “plugins” using the same format, like Automattic's AP plugin and Brid.gy fed. ^_~
To clarify, I'm not defending Threads. I just find the issue of dotted usernames being linked to EEE, to build a case against Threads, as inaccurate. ^_^ -
