I haven’t used threads and I never will, but it’s nice to see that it’s not a great user experience even for people who are used to meta.

Perfect for the IG audience perhaps… I imagine they love celebs and shit.
They seem to be largely confused by it.
Personally, it’s feels like a shittier version of insta. At least insta you can curate what you see. Threads you can’t. Plus the non tech savvy signed up for it then started asking what it was and what the fediverse is pretty much immediately. If your customers don’t even understand what your product is it’s probably not going to last too long. lol.
Some folks didn’t understand Twitter at first and yet it kept going. Remember, the earliest days of it involved people posting what they were having to eat and other silly seeming stuff 'cause they were trying to figure it out. Somehow it then transformed into this major platform that some journalists got addicted to thanks to a lot of the latest info popping up there, and now some of those same journalists & the like are scrambling about for anything similar.
This argument is the same as “Lemmy=tankies”.
So i guess were all tankies because were on here.
No, the software is written by tankies. But now its used on thousands of instances, with all kinds of political views.
I think its the best technology that has arrived in a long time. Now we can talk without corporations in the middle.
You and me would not be able to talk like this without an american big tech corp being involved otherwise, which is just insane. Ok, there are forums still, but they dont have a lot of users. Lemmy could be a game changer.
