      The Threads software will still be centralized, but the network won’t be. It’s a bit like saying outlook.com email is centralized.

          It’s big, and that’s absolutely a threat from an embrace/extend/extinguish perspective. A big node on a decentralized network is still part of a decentralized network unless they start breaking the decentralization.

              And the sky is still blue? Who cares?

                  All individual nodes are centralized. One of those nodes being big doesn’t mean the entire system becomes “centralized.”

                  Email is decentralized despite Gmail having the major market share by far.
