Aside from the “moral” argument, can someone ELI5 what harm can a federated threads.net do on other users (like me) and/or instances?

So can banks in the UK. There is one design for England, but a few for Scotland, for example.

The bar is pretty low.
I don’t think so, because forcing users to post means shitposting.
I can understand. After the initial excitement, the content is lacuster and scarse compared to reddit (due to lack of large userbase)
Gives an idea of the amount of data YouTube is storing, if only this one channel is 250GB!
And what’s the way to reinstate those communities? They might have very valuable names.
Up to a point. I played Cuphead and it was too hard and gave in.
Thanks for your story. I used both MATLAB and Octave, and while the language syntax is the same and most of the built in functions and basic toolbox functions are similar, Octave come short as soon as you start using graphics and more advanced toolboxes.
I flew Delta and they offered free internet for WhatsApp, iMessage and Facebook Messenger text-only messages. Better than nothing, but I suppose some of you here would have been able to access the full WAN through that.
I get your points. Thanks.
The way I use multis in Reddit is to create bigger topics, and I rarely see duplicated posts. For example, in Reddit I do not have a multi for subs /r/android1, /r/android2, /r/android3. However, I have a multi for mobile OSs, grouping /r/android and /r/iOS. Rarely do I see duplication.
That’s precisely why Reddit and Lemmy exist, they are content aggregators and people sort out the best content and comments by voting. If you are trying to make the point that I should deal with multiple duplicates posts on Lemmy in the same way I deal with multiple news outlets, then your point is equivalent to say that Lemmy is useless.
Well said, I agree with this too.
The problem is that posts may be exactly on the same trending topic, but not exactly the same. They could link to two different news sources for essentially the same news item. Or they could be a text or an image post about the same. Reddit mods would usually remove this kind of soft duplication within the same sub, and instead encourage to comment to one single post.
Merging multiple communities like in a Reddit multisub would not solve the issue of duplicated posts in one’s feed.
The “old” community was frozen.

“Our feeling, and our decision, is that while having multiple communities for the same topic is a key strength of the fediverse, we’re keen to avoid unnecessary fragmentation for existing members and confusion for any newcomers.”
I got a number of answers that sound very weak to me, and basically point to a “fail” of the fediverse in its own nature if threads joins. Kind of disappointing.
To me, the key idea of the fediverse is that it’s federated and should work as a whole, no matter who joins. Most of the answers below support the opposite. They are basically saying that the fediverse should stay within the “fediverse”, which is exactly what non-federated social media are doing. Meh.
