Good.

The sooner Twitter dies, the sooner we can see which alternative rises to fill the gap.

I'd love that, but the celebrities are very much signaling Bluesky.

I'm afraid not, the general people will and already do use Threads.

Threads is theoretically going to be connected to mastodon someday.

some instances have started to block threads the moment they announced that they are working on using the ActivityPub protocol.

Yeah, I recall. I think the main concern was not only is it Zuck Book, and fuck that, but that instances might be overwhelmed with posts and moderation problems, and be diluted by wetf is going on on Threads.

[–] spiderman@ani.social 1 points 2 years ago

Threads is trash, it's cluttered with corporate accounts trying to be funny to market their product and there is no quality content.

That's exactly why the general public will pick it over anything else.
