TL;DR: The common view on Meta’s Threads is that it will be either all good or all bad, leading to oversimplified and at the end contra productive propositions like the Fedipact. But in reality, it’s behaviour will most likely change dynamically over time, and therefore, to prevent us getting in a position, in which Threads can actually perform EEE on us, we need to adapt a dynamic strategy as well.

    No but there are basically two ways things can go:

    • The Fediverse stays tiny. It will probably be non-commercial, such a tiny userbase isn’t attractive to for-profit companies.
    • It blows up, getting big. This makes Meta really the smallest problem, as the bigger thing to worry about will be the sheer amount of corporations setting up activity-pub based applications and commercializing as much of the system as possible.
