I cannot comprehend how are people using these apps. Why would you want want to be tracked and targeted by a corporation like Meta is beyond me, what are you gaining in return of your whole data

Genuinely, are you asking why people like social media in general?

For one reason or another, they find the platform to be some combination of useful or entertaining and a good way to connect with people they care about. If you don’t otherwise have significant personal issues about advertising, it’s not an unreasonable position to think that the pros outweigh the cons, even if you have different priorities.

Depression, lower self esteem, active participation in the destruction of society, and sometimes a path to bigoted hateful extremist terrorism.

Not a bad deal if you have rocks for brains.

A friend of mine simply tried using Threads just to see how shitty it would be. She thought that it would be as simple as a quick download followed by a swift delete.

Turns out, you can’t delete your Threads account without nuking your Instagram account either. She’s stuck with the Threads account now.

How the fuck is that even legal, do they require any justification for this?

I guess the fact that they didn’t launch in europe spoke for itself.
