It's only cancel culture if it comes from the cancél region of the internet, otherwise it's just sparkling consequences of your own actions.
I played a bit with federation with Threads. Here's what I've found:
- You can't reply to Fediverse comments from Threads yet (this is noted in the Threads UI)
- You can like Fediverse comments from Threads
- Most plaint-text comments from Mastodon seem to federate to Threads without any problem.
- Comments from other Fediverse apps aren't always as successful (none of my comments from this account, on microwords, show up on Threads at all)
- Comments with any emojis (whether standard Unicode emojis, or custom emojis) don't seem to federate, even from Mastodon
- Only public comments federate (so unlisted, follower-only, and DMs don't show up there)
- If a threads replies to their own post, that reply will federate.
- Other replies don't seem to.
- Fediverse replies are on a separate tab in Threads from Threads replies, in other words, more second-class status.
- I haven't yet tested attachments, but I'd be surprised if they federate, since emojis don't even federate.
For reference, here is my post on threads, where you can see a single Fediverse comment, and here you can see the same post on Fosstodon where you'll be able to see replies that didn't federate.

Here's a thought I had. When Taylor Swift was dating Connor Kennedy, Bobby Jr's son, did he ever show her his dad's whale head?

nobody will remember:
– your salary
– how “busy you were”
– how many hours you worked
people will remember:
- when you ordered an “expresso” at the coffee shop

As a Blind person i never thought i would be on social media savoring photos. But the communal Mastodon alt text game is so strong that sweet, poetic or silly descriptions abound on my timeline. Thanks to legions of people who take time to write a meaningful description of the ephemera they post, i learn so much about insects, plants, buildings, memes — all dispatches from a dimension of the world that i otherwise wouldn't experience. If you're wondering whether anybody reads these things: YES.
