I totally agree with him. This will bring more people to the fediverse once they realize they can interact with their friends on Threads

You can hardly kill a decentralized network. Even if we fall back to field 1. People who actively chose freedom will stay.

You can: by making it irrelevant. It's not dead then, but not used also. And that is what's planned here.

That solely depends on you! There will always be a need for a decentralized open source social media network and as long as there isn't any other alternative that can achieve that the people who rely on it won't go anywhere.

Yes, but I advocate for decentralized social media to become the status quo and not the fallback role when corpo controlled media ends it's life cycle via enshittification again.

You can only act yourself and try to convince others. So yes federating with threads seems to be a big step in that direction.
