No in theory they plan to be federated properly through the AT protocol I believe. It's not compatible with the fediverse, but that's not necessary to be federated.
At the moment though they only have one server and that one doesn't even federate with the AT protocol yet. So at the moment it's just a twitter clone, without any special features.
I don't know if I think that they should talk to other services, I think that if they truly built a very user friendly twitter alternative that is spread out on many servers that are connected and independently run, that would be a huge goal. But I don't at all believe they'll even manage that.
That's why I love the fediverse, we have that going already and even more :)
