Seems to me the fear of overloading one instance over another will not happen after all.

But I do hope the Threadiverse can hit 500,000 consistent active users by the end of summer.

They're just not, though. Meta and Reddit are not the same. Reddit and my employer, where we make thing that people choose to buy, are not the same.

People can have preferences on different platforms and products, and they can have different amounts of confidence in different companies on how capable and trustworthy they are.
