Hello Lemmy! Yesterday I released the first version of an alternative frontend for Threads: Shoelace. It allows for fetching posts and profiles from Threads without the need of any browser-side JavaScript. It’s written in Rust, and powered by the spools library, which was co-developed between me and my girlfriend. Here’s a quick preview:

The official public instance (at least for now) is located at https://shoelace.mint.lgbt/, if y’all wanna try it out. There’s also instructions to deploy it inside the docs you can find in the README. Hope y’all enjoy it!
Hi! Dev and OP here.
Yes, I am more than aware that the fediverse can see Threads profiles and posts. However, adding to what T said:
It may be an option for you, but it really depends on the instance your account is in, and who do you want to follow. Shoelace, on the other hand, would only be limited by the capabilities from unauthenticated API endpoints Meta provides, but any public post or profile can be opened.
