Depends on.

Meta Threads have other issues on top of potential EEE measures and concerns about data harvesting. Meta's moderation is a shit show on Facebook, Instagram, and so far on Threads, so federating with them will result on letting a large number of trolls into the Fediverse, that are encouraged to do their trolling for higher place in the algorithm. In addition to that, Meta can dictate policies to you, like no NSFW content, and for corporations that can mean almost anything.

If Tumblr doesn't go too extreme in any of these directions, I can accept federation with them. My main gripe with interacting with corporations is that they likely want to dictate the rules of the Fediverse.

So I can tell you Tumblr's policies are a copy of Instagram. It is even more conservative than gram. It doesn't want any nudity or porn or even bikini pictures. Sees a nip through a shirt, gets shadow banned. They outright ban users for it. But their bots can't handle porn bots. So average casual user/blogger will banned while porn bots proliferate.

And support ActivityPub? Two things I learned today.

Doesn't support it yet. There's been murmuring that they want to support it, but I'm of the "I'll believe it when I see it" opinion that most of that was just empty promises. I'd like to be proven wrong though!

They sort of had a reawakening.

They have recently allowed more porn. But are actively discouraging sexy pics and erotic literature.
