I'm pretty sure spez said during an interview that he was willing to work with app creators who were willing to work with him. That definitely split developers in two with those who were interested in sticking with reddit, and those who just wanted to move on.

I've been thinking about getting Breakpoint during the summer sale. I played a little bit of it a while back, but ended up refunding it for whatever reason. I'm craving it again though. I'll probably get it and dive into it after finishing Final Fantasy 16.
Of course you're gonna have "low quality influencers", but if you're attracting THOSE people, you've already attracted a massive audience of other people. Those low quality influencers wouldn't be coming over in the first place if there wasn't a massive audience to appeal to in the first place. And if there is a big audience on these platforms, then you're gonna have the higher quality creators come over.
I make YouTube videos, but I'm hesitant to fully dump Twitter because I'm losing out on a critical connection pathway with my (admittedly small) audience. If I could know that a majority of my audience was on mastodon AND that I could collaborate with other creators in my niche, I'd fully switch over and delete Twitter from my phone in a heartbeat.
But I can't do that because everyone uses Twitter.
Threads is letting people get their foot in the door for the Fediverse. And I think it's really sucky that, if I want to reach the biggest audience, I might just have to make an account on Threads, because practically all the instances out there are defederating from it.
