step 2) realise you don’t have any moni to advertise

This

I’m not entirely sure; it just seemed like the kind of amusing half-baked idea that would be perfect for a shitpost.

1. Fediverse ferderates with Threads.
2. ???
3. Profit

Here’s a thought: Threads is aiming to be some ultra sanitized, advertizer-freindly, politics &news free bland ville. You know, the kind of place where people have ultra shallow discussions about the weather over fake smiles.

EEE that shit. Give em a taste of critical thinking, hot takes, poop jokes and bean memes, and a bit of NSFW and moral degeneracy. And I’m not talking about that alt right shit. Give corporatelandia a taste of the real world: messy, raw, unfiltered discourse. Maybe some John Oliver for good measure.

What I am saying is, just be yourselves over there. They’ll defederate ASAP.

(I also skipped the title and was confused for a minute)

Not being snarky, but Google “Embrace, Extend, Extinguish” for some interesting context for what Meta might be trying to do with Threads.
