Meta doesn’t need Lemmy/Kbin/Mastodon. They are competing with Twitter. Threads will probably have more users than the whole fediverse combined within the first few days.
That’s known, but it’s foolish to think that for example Mastodon isn’t seen as a Twitter alternative. Meta knows that and I think they want to not just be a corporate alternative to twitter, they want to make sure they are the alternative to twitter. The Fediverse has to take measures defending itself or Threads will overtake and stomp over everything, even if the sudden user surge might be appealing to some.
The measure taken should not be outright defederation. But ofcourse that is upto the instance admins.
Exactly, it’s free software so.instance admins ought to be able to decide, but the devs should nudge them into a preffered direction.
