I never understood why people prefer threads over Mastodon or Lemmy. Their app bundle size is so much smaller. 250mb for an app that does similar to what Mastodon and Lemmy is doing is ridiculous
People like self-promotion and the chance of getting millions of views for your latest post. The Fediverse is like a nerdy book club in comparison (which is why I'm here).

But threads is in the fediverse
AFAIK not yet
Confirmed, unless they have done it in the past few days, not yet. TechCrunch quoted the head of Instagram as saying that they haven't implemented ActivityPub yet. There was no specific reason why not, and no timeline for adding that functionality. I think we have at least a few months, since there are a lot of other missing features that should be higher on the to-do list.
Selected servers only some day in the future (maybe) to keep the EU regulators breathing to their necks.
Wait, are there people who aren't advertisers who do prefer Threads over Mastodon or Lemmy? Most of the reviews I have seen are bad, and the good ones seem to be from people who haven't tried the fediverse, though I couldn't swear to that.
