Just like twitter rose to prominence as being one stolen feature of facebook (that being the contemporary facebook’s “status”), Meta must pull a single feature from its long-dead predecessors. I demand platform where you list 6 of the people you know from Most favorite to Least, the top three being Tom, Air-humping Storm Trooper and Tila Tequila. That is the only thing that can undo the unknown energies of the Blue Bird,

I think a big part of the initial explosive growth was due to ease of access. Almost everybody has an instagram account, and that made it really easy for people to just “check out” threads. I’m not surprised that a lot of people didn’t end up sticking around.

Yea but your Rotten Tomatoes score is, like, 10 Lol

I found it terribly boring. It felt like twitter but with much less functionality.

Someone accidentally shutdown the bot farm

Expected it. It’s a cheap Twitter clone with the downsides of using Meta social networks. When was new, people wanted to try it, specially since there’s a lot of hate towards Twitter lately.

And half of movement there is just bots reposting shit from twitter. Indeed great success.

The impression I got from Threads is it was all the ads and brands of twitter without the actual people.
