And since he survived Crisis, he scaled to Pre Crisis Supes and others, which gives him an advantage in the Stat trinity. Speed, strength, and durability were his with that factored in. Thanos could like take on any his avatars thats not Pre Crisis, idk. As for True Darkseid, if Thanos has no way to take him out, he'd just be fighting a never ending horde of avatars. I personally think the only arguement that can be made about that fight is whether or not True Darkseid would interfere. If it was so easy to create new avatars, he would. It doesn't work like that.

There is Godhead Darkseid, whose mindset and thoughts are entirely divorced from the events of the orrery to a degree. The avatars are not m-bodies, they aren't doom bots. They are literally Darkseid's shadow being cast down upon that reality and have a will of their own. This is why "True" Darkseid in DCAU is different from "True" Darkseid in the main universe. These aren't true Darkseids, rather Darkseids residing in Fourth World. Darkseid himself only survived the crisis because the Godsphere exists beyond bleedspace and outside of time such that none of the crisis events were even noticed because he exists far beyond that scale.

Infinity Gauntlet Thanos is also being heavily underestimated in it. Any engagement would have ended with Thanos atomizing Darkseid into nonexistence. And there would be no more emanations to come due to no outside help. And if you use base Darkseid and base Thanos, Thanos still scales to his feats in Thanos Wins.
