Frankie ✅This might help explain the spectacular launch of Threads
MorphanyBut the same applies to Mastodon.
Because on Mastodon there are also placeholder accounts from Twitter accounts that actually don't use Mastodon at all.
And while I understand that Threads is doing it because it is just an additional App for the Instagramaccount people are already created, I don‘t think Mastodon should do that because Mastodon and Twitter are 2 very different apps and are not connected.

Mastodon doesn’t automatically create those twitter linked accounts, a Mastodon user has to manually create it. That’s a big difference

So you mean these accounts were made up by a real person and not created by Mastodon?
Well, then Mastodon should take actions against those accounts because it is absolutely annoying when someone comes from Twitter and find its own Twitteraccounts being copied.
@morphany @Some_Emo_Chick 😲. I was talking about those twitter mirror accounts. I don’t know how those duplicates of yours were made
