Within the first hour of threads going live, about a dozen of those im following on ig have joined (and began posting). When it's fully federated, could this be the entry level platform the fediverse needs to push it into average use? I have a slight feeling it’ll be a BeReal type scenario where people use it for a few months and then move on, but id be stoked to be able to have my friends and family see my posts on mastodon/lemmy.

this is a great point. while i think more users joining the fediverse (even indirectly) is a good move for its success, that success does wholly rely on meta at that point and that could cause trouble. you’re also spot on about their client, i already prefer it to the mastodon one and it’s only been out a few hours.
