It got 10 million users in just 7 hours.
I dont really mind Threads, but I hope it truly fuck Twitter over. I dont care if Zuck wins, I just want Elon to lose.
I want them both to lose.
And I think it’s likely, too.
Modern social media companies are so fucking desperate to make money, they are screwing over and alienating users faster and faster.
My hope is that eventually they will end up on the fediverse, because as long as they only hop from corporate bs to corporate bs, they won’t find a platform that just leaves them alone.
One of the first things I saw when I arrived here 3 weeks ago was a graphic showing how much of your personal data it tracks? Wish I could find that now…
I’m sure they have had this waiting in the wings for a while but held off on releasing it till the main competitor was seen to be floundering.
When I was 15, for some reason a new social media platform launch made me excited. Twitter? Sign me up. Google is launching a new cool social media called Google Plus? Let’s go.
Nowadays? I use one: Lemmy. I wouldn’t touch a single big tech social media platform, and if Lemmy dies out… Guess I’m not using this type of service again.
