Every single Threads user is displayed in your home feed, with zero option to only show content from people you’re following. Hashtagging doesn’t work yet, and most profile edits need to be done from your Instagram account, which clearly demonstrates that Threads isn’t so much a Twitter/Mastodon/Bluesky competitor as much as it is an Instagram DLC.

I’m sure it’s gonna do gangbusters since it’s baked-in to the most popular social platform in the world, but… it sucks?

        Not to the point of giving myself a brain anarchism. I mean you do you, but I’d rather have 10 root canals without anesthesia then spend a single second using a meta product.

          Having had three root canals in the last two months, I’m gonna have to disagree with you there.

          But yeah, I’m not planning on actually using Threads. It sucks.

            Yeah, I might be exaggerating a bit, but I’d still suffer though a lot to avoid it if I could.
