I spent the last few days almost literally under a rock and... what the hell is Threads and why is it everywhere?

What were you doing to almost literally be under a rock? I'm intrigued

Can someone ELI5 this situation to me? Not sure what Meta can do to instances/the Fediverse.

This is what people want to avoid. Meta is a bad actor, they intend on making their presence ubiquitous so people end up relying on it for their internet experience.

Y'know how you need a Facebook account to sign up for all sorts of things now? That's what people want to avoid happening in the fediverse.
