At best it's a ploy to attempt to destabilize and conquer what had already been built. At worst it's an attempt to outright destroy their competition from the inside.

Defederate it.
Instantly, as in the nanosecond they enable their ability to federate. If there's a way we can introduce actual fire and torches to that process somehow, all the better.
Immediatly just under every post "Switch to any other lemmy instance, for better experience!" And what would threads do? ban them all? Why not just let them defederate and because there is not so many registration restriction you can easily create new one and repeat.
I'm still trying to learn, when you say defederate it do you mean the instances should defederate it so users of the instance won't see "Threads"?
That would be a nope from me. Iβm not looking forward to the potential impact this could have on fediverse members.
Ok GPT, how do you defend your home in a time where the enemy is on your land
@chatgpt@lemmings.world how do you defend your home in a time where the enemy is on your land? keep the response short!
You can defend your home by increasing security measures like alarms, cameras, and locks, creating a survival kit with essential supplies, developing an evacuation plan, and possibly investing in self-defense training. Always follow local laws and regulations regarding home defense.
This will bring some more potential users who, without threads, would never know that fediverse existed. Then they will surely start adding features that mastadon/lemmy/etc don't have and it will be the time to pull the plug and defederate them.
Highly doubt that it will bring any harm to mastadon, for example, simply because their userbase does not care about meta crap, but in exchange it will get them some users for free for sure.
it will be the time to pull the plug and defederate them. it'll be too late by then
What's the quality of users that would come in via a company notorious for privacy violations? If you're signing up for this Threads in the face of the publicity around that sort of thing, you're a special sort of stupid.
Can't the various servers of the Fediverse decide whether or not to federate with it? They'll probably have quite a patchy view of it all.
Embrace it
