Mastodon founder, Eugen Rochko, praises Threads entry into the #Fediverse because it makes Mastodon “a far more attractive option.”

This is fairly obvious and basic network effects since both Threads & Mastodon become more valuable as their users can now share content across these services seamlessly.

This angers Mastodon admins for whom the fact that not a lot of people use Mastodon was a selling point. They do not want it to grow and be useful to more people.

@carnage4life And because the network effect also applies to their server costs... There's a good chance they're about to see their bills skyrocket.
