I look forward to it. Granted, I wonder at this point if ActivityPub is still on the roadmap given the user count and communication already happening. Their goal is to hurt Twitter, and that's starting to happen already. Why should they seek out conflict when they're winning?
ActivityPub is very likely about complying with the EU DMA and future development of it. The Fediverse community by itself is practically irrelevant.
I think they will still kind of seek conflict with reddit. Reddit users that are leaving will then move to threads instead of kbin/lemmy.
I’m not so sure, given that it’s more of a Twitter replacement. I think it would capture more potential Mastodon users than Kbin/Lemmy users.

I'm following Midwest.social on mastodon, which is an instance of Lemmy, not mastodon. I give it a 6/10. It's far from ideal, but you'll basically come a cross comment chains in your feed. It's much harder to take in the WHOLE discussion and kind of gage the general sentiment of people on the platform, but it is functional and easy enough to leave your own comment, as well as keep track of specific users replying back and forth. I could definitely see people using a more Twitter-like app as a reddit replacement now that I've test driven it myself.
