If it really starts supporting ActivityPub, you could start seeing Threads posts in a fediverse feed that also includes posts from Mastodon, Reddit alternative Lemmy, and any other platform that runs on the protocol.

Please no. The last thing Lemmy needs is a tsunami of Facebook normies. Instant Eternal September.

I would argue meta is the only way mainstream content creator are willing to join fediverse, It won’t be the worst thing to have more options, especially when feed curation in on our hand.

At the moment you can’t even use the web UI without installing the official app so I am skeptical.
