What would be the problem if Threads federated with Lemmy&co in the future?
I've seen a lot of comments suggesting Threads should be pre-emptively defederated by Lemmy/kbin instances if it tries to join us. I'm a bit confused what the problem would be. When Meta does its usual corporate bullshit over at Threads, how would that hurt a user or community based on Lemmy.world? If anything, wouldn't it give the fediverse a boost if Threads users start discovering communities outside of Meta's control?
I presume I'm missing something, as you can probably tell I don't fully understand how Lemmy, Threads or federation all work.
