  Threads is planning to federate, so it adopting more Fediverse-compatible features is relevant.

    But this doesn’t look like it will be compatible with current ActivityPub, right?

      I don't see why not. Mastodon could just translate multi-word hashtags into underscored hashtags. There's already some unsupported features from forks like Firefish that get translated, like emote-reactions register on Mastodon as favorites, etc.

      ActivityPub can support tags with spaces, even though no fediverse platform allows you to write tags like that. The name of the tag can be pretty much whatever you want, as long as it has a valid URL.
