Exactly!
I do think that while "Threads" reduces reach, clamoring to get in, etc., OTOH, it will suck up most of the "worst of social media".
This may mean that Bluesky grows slowly and ends up with the best discussions, insights, expertise, etc.
I don't know if that will really work out / come to pass, nor how "viable" that could be on the business side (though Bluesky WAS founded as a "PBLLC" - so, immediately signaling no pursuit of the growth at any cost mentality that makes everything garbage constantly)... There are obvious reasons for and against this scenario, such as the strong inclination people have for "single sign-on" / "one app for purpose X" type structures (i.e., using both Threads and Bluesky might be too annoying), though, it does seem like Threads is planned to have some type of "fediverse" integration. Of course, knowing "Meta" and Psychoberg, I'll be surprised if that's even initially angled at integrating with, say, Bluesky and creating more value for everyone ... Unless the goal is simply to "embrace, extend, extinguish" ultimately, to create more value for "the (Zucker)Borg".
