Meta's 'Threads' wants to colonize the Fediverse - eviltoast

I really hope this is a complete failure, like Meta itself.

    yeah, but to be fair we don’t have a good number of those who opted out because to delete the Threads account you have to delete your Instagram account.

    A significant number may simple have noped out after seeing no follow feed.

      Definitely. Meta is studiously only sharing the number of accounts registered. We have no idea how many of those are active. If we go with the old 1-9-90 rule, only about 10 million of those 100 million will become active users. Although, the rule obviously isn’t a universal constant. On the fediverse, for example, it’s closer to ⅓ of registered users that are active.
