Pretty cool at first glance. Not so cool when they have pulled in enough users and then remove the federation.

They have orders of magnitude more users than all Mastodon instances combined already.

Part of that is only because any and all Instagram accounts are also considered Threads accounts. I have a feeling active users is probably in a similar ballpark

BS. There are 140 mil Threads accounts and over 2 bil Instagram accounts. You can create Threads account with Instagram and for a time they couldn't be decouple but that changed too.
