From what I found, a lot of the people who join Threads, wouldn't have even looked into joining the Fediverse in the first place. If anything, Threads is bringing the concept of the Fediverse to more people and some of those people may find that Mastodon and the rest of the Fediverse could be what they prefer, especially if you can still talk with your family and friends on here.

Threads are stuck behind dealing with their investors as we can push the Fediverse with new updates all the time

It's a similar dream I have. People need to jump ship and go towards the Alternatives.

Really hope it doesn't get delayed but also wish for both the staff not to have mental health issues or us to get another unpolished game released to us.

Yeah, Just don't post something you'll regret, it's called Accountability.

Easier to get fediverse users on there over everyone else from what I’ve found. People can be stubborn

Currently no, but protocols and things are being worked on including one by the PixelFed creator called Sup!. Maybe one day we will have a good messaging system between the fediverse.

The easiest thing to use what isn’t decentralised but is secure would be Signal for the moment. Especially as they rolled out usernames instead of using your phone number

I know I’d at least like all my contacts using the fediverse as I hate having to switch apps to see what people are up to.

Isn't most websites?

Threads is instagrams version of mastodon / twitter. Even know you can login with instagram it does bring it mainstream

That might take a while with all 2 million of them lol

Yeah, well, at least it's said to have that many active users but logging in once in a month to check 1 post. So less than 10 seconds on the website / app counts as active.

I'm sure it's slightly inflated. Hopefully indie developers and other smaller public figures come across.

As of last November 2 Million users. What compared to the rest of the Fediverse that's very few.
