I get meta evil, but aren’t we just blocking out any users from accessing the wider fediverse?

If you’re in the know, sure, but if the fediverse interacts with threads we could expose literally billions of people to the larger fediverse.

Maybe while the fediverse is still getting it’s legs defederating is the move, but I mean literally billions of people being made aware of the fediverse would be amazing.

i have never once in all my years seen one single thing made better by being discovered by the masses.

It's not making anyone aware. For all I know, Meta probably wouldn't even show the source instance, just abuse the content

Embrace, extend, extinguish

Meta does not like the fediverse and they will do anything to destroy it
