Re: Threads testing federation via ActivityPub

The page source does include application/activity+json: <link 
href="https://www.threads.net/&#064;zuck/post/C0zXcQmxO77" 
type="application/activity+json" />

But curl doesn't work as you noted, perhaps it requires some additional things to limit it for internal test?
