Right, the problem is more the new users - who might even have been on Mastodon/Pleroma/etc. if they didn't hear about threads - will just go to threads. The EEE stuff comes later, and the article kind of realizes this without realising it - the EEE stuff will come maybe even years later and yet Mastodon will be where it is now. Their growth will be stunted.
