I still hate the fact that the same people who said that no one is going to adopt a whole new social network in regards to mastodon suddenly changed their minds when the zuck made a worse version of it.

Someone needs to piggyback off Metas marketting machine and create a glorified Mastodon instance for Europe called something like OpenThreads. Licence a Mastodon client and customise it to look (and behave) like Threads and federate with Threads.
