NBA Twitter (over a million people easily) would switch overnight if Shams Charania and Adrian Wojnarowski suddenly switched platforms. I think with the right UI/UX, Threads could do it. But we'll see.

Yeah you are correct. There are a few different twitters besides the journalists. And others may be more poachable and also maybe even more valuable.

Live streaming platforms poach all the time.
