How does Threads federation work compared to Mastodon? Do they have an allow list?

Mastodon users can subscribe to Lemmy communities so I'm curious if Threads can already federate with Lemmy.

If they can, I've never seen it. No Threads content in any Lemmy instance I'm aware of and no way to use the Threads app as a client for lemmy.world or any of the others.

Yeah I've never seen it either. However, I was curious if it was because instances were blocking it (as in fedipact).

Checking out Lemmy.world, I noticed threads is actually listed as a linked server. So at some point, lemmy.world has traded content with threads.net.

Though I can't actually find the content. And there don't seem to be any threads.net users (except a couple who wrote it in their display name as some sort of joke), so perhaps there are some threads users who are following lemmy communities but haven't commented (or aren't able to)?
