Threads Extends Post-Editing Window to 15 Minutes & Enhances Fediverse Integration

Threads / Fediverse Integration 

Threads has extended the editing window for posts from 5 minutes to 15 minutes. For users with fediverse sharing enabled, their posts will now appear on federated servers like Mastodon 15 minutes after they are published.

Additionally, users with fediverse sharing can now see who follows them and likes their content from other servers.

Why It Matters: This extended editing window gives users more time to correct typos or modify their posts. While 15 minutes offers greater flexibility, it is shorter than X's one-hour window, effectively balancing the need for timely edits with the prevention of misleading conten.

Furthermore, the ability to view follows and interactions from other servers enhances integration between Threads and the fediverse. As the fediverse remains unfamiliar to many, Threads’ involvement can help increase awareness and drive adoption.
