I think that an important part of twitter was the proximity to power through politicians, journalists and celebrities. If threads is good at making those people switch over, then I think a lot of other people will switch over as well. On big part of twitter users is people who love discussing the news and current events and that's much more appealing when you can do it on the same platform as people who are in the news or write the news.
(On the other hand lemmy has Margot Robbie so maybe we're in the race as well?)
