Did you get Threads 🧵🪡?

Question

Poll: Did you get threads?

If so, what do you think about it so far?  What are your hopes and expectations of it?

If not, do you plan to? Why or why not?

Extra question: looks like Musk wants to sue Meta over it.  What do you think about the potential lawsuit?  As far as I understand (please correct me if I’m wrong) Musk is claiming Meta stole intellectual property by hiring engineers that he fired from Twitter.

Answer

I dont plan to join. I have zero interest in new social media, especially not anything connected to facebook. Side note, i tried to join Twitter recently just to keep up with some specific drama that caught my interest lol. And the authentification process is garbage. I went through it once, and.it was a pain in the ass. Within 5 minutes of authentificating my account I received a message that there were problems with my account and i needed to authenticate again. No thanks. I genuinely think Elon Musk is *trying* to run Twitter into the ground at this point.

Answer

No. I’m already involved in a class action lawsuit involving Meta misusing my biometric data. I’m not  keen on signing up for another service of theirs. 
Fuck Elon Musk though. If this helps tanks his nonsense, so much the better.

Answer

I’ve always said that I’m going to jump on the next social media site because I never do and always feel left out, but I just don’t want to lol.
As for the lawsuit, I think Musk is dumb and I hope he loses. He fired people. He doesn’t own them and their ideas. If he wanted what they had to offer, he shouldn’t have fired a ton of people and then acted smug about it.

Answer

Threads is a new social media app, launched by Meta.  It is similar to and meant to compete with Twitter.

Answer

I literally just descovered this yesterday. I downloaded it to check it out. It gives big twitter vibes for sure. Idk if Ill continue to use it tbh

Answer

Not going to. I have pictures on my Instagram I’d rather not lose if I decide I don’t like that social media. Which I probably wouldn’t. Only reason I still have Instagram is to talk to my friends from other states/countries. I have tumblr and this and one group on discord.

Answer

No. I joined a mastodon server. I am hoping that an open source social media platform without a billionaire at the helm might work better.

Answer

🤷🏻‍♀️ first I'm hearing about it. Likely won't bother with it.

Answer

It apparently will change peoples names on it too without consent or notice (has done it to trans people and some sex workers.)... And the whole not being able to delete it without deleting Instagram too is wild. It just feels like the ick.
