It’ll be interesting to see if Meta can convert enough users to Threads for it to be a lasting platform. As much as I don’t like Meta, they’re in the best position to take over this social space with the most resources to do it. Especially while Twitter is laughably bad right now.
There’s been a lot of hand wringing on Mastodon about it, but I feel like if I can follow a friend who uses Threads from my Mastodon account then great. I don’t have to use their app AND I can follow/interact with my friends.

I’m eager to see when it opens up for federation.
