The Threads software will still be centralized, but the network won't be. It's a bit like saying outlook.com email is centralized.

It's big, and that's absolutely a threat from an embrace/extend/extinguish perspective. A big node on a decentralized network is still part of a decentralized network unless they start breaking the decentralization.
