Within the first hour of threads going live, about a dozen of those im following on ig have joined (and began posting). When it's fully federated, could this be the entry level platform the fediverse needs to push it into average use? I have a slight feeling it’ll be a BeReal type scenario where people use it for a few months and then move on, but id be stoked to be able to have my friends and family see my posts on mastodon/lemmy.

Will threads mainstream the fediverse?

Well, if you want to be treated like trash, or if you want to be harassed for your sexuality, then yes. But, honestly, who do want such things in their life?

Thanks for sharing. For me this was also an enlightening reminder what an Mastodon and the Fediverse is not.

In case the built-in Mastodon frame maked it hard for anyone else than me to read the full thread, you can find it here:

Very much worth the read.
