Do you think Meta's Threads app will be beneficial or detrimental to the Fediverse? (kbin.social)

Personally I believe that it'll make people associate the Fediverse with Threads, which is not a good thing. Edit: It'll replace their definition of the Fediverse, with Threads, and people may widely forget about Mastodon, Lemmy, Kbin etc.

I look forward to it. Granted, I wonder at this point if ActivityPub is still on the roadmap given the user count and communication already happening. Their goal is to hurt Twitter, and that's starting to happen already. Why should they seek out conflict when they're winning?

ActivityPub is very likely about complying with the EU DMA and future development of it. The Fediverse community by itself is practically irrelevant.
