The look and feel of an application really does matter a lot. When Reddit’s API got shut down and I couldn’t use RIF anymore I tried using Reddit’s own app. It sucked. It felt awful. It’s extremely possible that if Reddit’s app felt close to something I was used to I wouldn’t have ended up swapping to Lemmy. So, if we want people to use Mastodon instead of Threads, why are you upset someone is making an app that uses Mastodon while looking like Threads?

Also it’s easier to onboard new people when the UI closely resembles what they’re used to.
