That argument suggests open source products couldn’t possibly compete with a closed-source alternative.

They can compete of they have the manpower to do so. Lemmy has literally only 2 devs. How many devs can Meta pay to work on Threads and outpace it?

Threads isn’t a Lemmy competitor - it competes with Mastodon

But they can easily implement Lemmy-like features on it or make another sister-app. It isn't hard to bruteforce such things when you have that much money and developers
