how’s that not a fucking ad
Did you read the article? Excerpts include:
Generally, in business, it is sensible to provide your customers with what they want. With Twitter, the meme-makers’ favourite billionaire is doing the opposite. The cyber-trucker is trying his best to cull his customer base.
Threads is what would happen if Twitter and Instagram made out in a bowling alley. It’s all their worst parts combined - but it may well succeed. Rocket-man Musk’s changes to Twitter have not exactly made it ‘brand friendly’. Threads, meanwhile, is shaping up to be a paradise for in-your-face brands - and the AdTech industry would love for you to join them

Threads’ naffness won’t stop its success. It’s data-scraping fluffily dressed up as substandard corporate twaddle. It’s a cringe-inducing privacy invasion. It’s not meant for users, but that doesn’t really matter: you’re not a user, you’re a product.
It’s describing Threads as a product not for users, but advertisers. The perfect brand-friendly non-place for companies to stick their marketing crap. That doesn’t really come across as a ringing endorsement to me.

Yeah, federated network things.
Eventually Threads will be able to sort chronologically and will be able to filter just on who the user follows. It’ll be IG without pictures in essence, and people will love it. Not my cup of tea (although I use IG occasionally to follow specific accounts) but bully for them. I like the idea of Twitter becoming less and less relevant at the very least.
idk, the same fascists and nazis of twitter found their home in threads as well. its just fire on fire.
Aren’t pictures the point of Instagram, though? I don’t use Instagram, but I would not expect people to like something that is basically a picture sharing service without the pictures.
Let’s burn those data centers down.
