To be honest I think defederating meta products is stupid, ik meta exploits it’s users and everything but the fact is defederating only makes mastodon worse, and adds another hurdle to more users making the switch
“if I can’t follow any of the accounts follow on threads why would I switch to mastodon or any other instance.”
Really meta doesn’t give a shit about mastodon, It really doesn’t pose a threat sure they can catalog or scrape your posts for user info, but their energy is going to be focused on their users who use web or especially the phone app.
