It appears that Threads is working on a Communities feature called "Loop", which might be similar to subreddits or X Communities. (mastodon.xyz)

I would say they probably are, but it's way more likely than not that this is intentional. Why call communities loops? What about a community makes it a "loop"? It doesn't make sense, unless they're deliberately trying to cause confusion with fediverse terminologies.

We could mess back. We cannot influence much their userbase but we could make sure to stick to our vocabulary and rename Meta's thing. For example, Thread should be rename MMT (Meta's Microblogging Tool) and Loops, their "communities" Bubbles.
