Fork Mastodon? You mean like Threads?
Throw 50 fulltime programmers at development and crowd everyone else out. Or fork it with something clearly superior since they can afford to pay people to work on it fulltime.

What does “crowd everyone else out” mean specifically here? People could still choose to use non-Threads ActivityPub apps.

I mean development. It's happened with other projects before when large corps get involved. Of course, the existing developers of a project don't have to allow that to happen.
