Not consulting the user base before making sweeping changes. The users are your life blood, be nice to them.

I am not sure anyone would care tho, for example see Threads! That's just twitter Why not move to Mastodon? Why be a Corporate Sucker? But people do it. I still see a lot of people active on reddit, The change is simple and efficient yet... The yieldings low...

I feel like Threads is a special case. If you're using FB or Insta you're going to use other Meta services. If you got yourself off FB then its easier to not want to get back in bed with Meta. When people jumped ship from twitter we saw a huge percentage come over to Mastodon. There was no Bird company services that they were being pulled back to so the move to Mastodon was easier.

I see a Point, So This is most likely go around the fact that zucceriboi exists... That is giving me some Ideas...

There is a group that will leave Twitter to go to Thread because a bunch of celebrities and influencers switch over. Those people dont care about anything related to the Fediverse.

Agreed. At least a consultative approach, being validated and heard can go a long way in fostering compromise ime.
