This is the most comprehensive analysis of the Threads situation that I have seen to far. I recommend giving it a read.

    Honestly? I don’t think Lemmy will even see 1% of Threads content. So I don’t see why we’re fussing over defedding here.

      Because a lot of people here are also on the microblogging side of the Fediverse and a lot of people find Lemmy/kbin’s presentation of conversations a lot more appealing.

      Also a lot of people don’t realize that we won’t see Threads content at all because they don’t quite understand how federation works.

        We will only see threads content if they deliberately interact with us here.

          I know, I’m not saying it’s not. Additionally, it is not even sure if they will ever be able to, because Lemmy uses the article format for posts while microblogging platforms use note.
