yeah if threads integration means that i could interact with my friends threads posts with mastodon account i don't mind it. it's not like they are gonna use mastodon. maybe there might be a chance that people on threads might visit mastodon once they are fed up with spams on threads.
The chance is higher that threads will add some features mastodon doesn't support and then people will leave mastodon for threads.
embrace extend extinguish
and break compatibility so that neither of the users won't be able to share posts properly. yes i am aware of their shenanigans. i am gonna use mastodon even if they make it a sinking ship. plus i hope people realise it doesn't have porn/spam bots like threads do.
the very fact that they don't allow instagram users to view threads post without making them open a threads account tells me how much they are gonna try to push threads by any means, even if it affects other platforms like mastodon.
