This is by far the most comprehensive analysis of the Threads situation that I have seen. I recommend giving it a read.

We will only see threads content if they deliberately interact with us here.

I know, I'm not saying it's not. Additionally, it is not even sure if they will ever be able to, because Lemmy uses the article format for posts while microblogging platforms use note.

It works on mastodon.

Yes, comments are notes. But look at the main post from Mastodon: you only see the title and a link to the original post. That is just a placeholder. I am doubtful whether Threads will even have such a placeholder at all given their "careful" approach to federation.
