    Yeah, amidst all the posts about Threads, the most insightful articles I saw were the ones stating just how dogshit the actual user experience was. And that experience is just "get users to see more ads among the regular content.

    It’s like, people don’t even care what they join. They just care that it has the POTENTIAL to be the NEXT BIG THING, so they need to be on ground zero. All for the show off, zero to do with the specifics of the platform.

    Insightful in the sense that it adequately matched the reception shit like NFT powered user spaces got, with investors thinking Blockchain wass the Next Big Thing. It’s all theatrics.
