Wonder if they will ever understand that bluskys success isn't because of its features(even though some really are nice), but because it's not Facebook or Twitter
Bluesky isn't something to worry about for threads. The people on the right will need to go somewhere when twitter finally dies and they ain't coming here. Honestly I don't have a problem with there being a few different options for each type of social media.
Though Bluesky is a pretty straight copy of Twitter so not sure there’s much to be gained in the copycat realm of social media by calling out pots vs kettles …
well, it doesn't matter. ANYTHING to do with META or Elon will never be down-loaded on any of my devices ever again. So, if this doesn't work here, I am done with all social media.
Thanks I did that a lot at first, it gets tedious and I still get 20 a day.
They are the same people creating new accounts using fake pictures, a couple of retweets and the common denominator is they are followed by a legit person whom you follow.
I was not on Twitter in years, it was bad then. Probably way worse now. Here is one of 16 who tried to follow me in between your replies. I blocked 12 of them.
1: wants to follow me, he hates communists.
2: oh, look at this. Hi E
3: his description of communists.
4: Block
I mean this copies old Twitter in many aspects. It's like complaining about a particular UI in a videogame such as a pause menu or mechanics (unless you're a Nintendo ninja patent trolling.) it's all generally going to be the same functionality just a different coat of paint.
They seriously miss the point. It's not the features that make people stay, it's how these manage to keep a nice community. look at X, for example; hijacked beyond the point of no return
I find myself using Threads less and less. Their algorithm is the WORST. It’s now near constantly asking me if I want to see more or less of its content. It should just work.
This is literally a place filled with emotionally (and intellectually) immature people who can’t handle seeing anything positive about Donald trump. Further, the hatred in the posts are more crude, vulgar, and vile than anything I’ve come across on my X for you algorithm. This is not the place for 🧠
I deleted all my Threads posts and may shutdown my account. Once I signed up for Bluesky, I wasn’t using Threads anymore. Year-end clearing goal is to purge apps and things I just don’t use or need anymore.
Cleaning out old to make room for new possibilities.
I never signed up for Threads. I despise Zuckerberg. I keep my FB and Instagram interaction to a minimum. I am hoping someone else (Bluesky?) will come up with an alternative.
Product management at FB/Meta over the past 10 years can broadly be described as panicking and rolling out unoriginal features as fast as possible so that their platforms look and function differently every time you log in
They're realizing too late that if only they addressed and fixed issues users pointed out, even just acknowledging problems, they wouldn't have lost out to Bluesky. They ignored us for too long, so now we reciprocate.

from little chestnuts grow.
No tears shed. They will not thrive, now that we have a bBlue sky over us.
That's the moat.
Not features....core principles.

We'll build this community better! just some patience :)
Anyway regardless, I doubt you encounter more trash here than anywhere else...
On X you can't post anything without getting hate
Meta doesn’t creat - they copy
Which Linux had for years.

Hmm.
In fact, since we have Emmy, the Grammy, the Golden Globe Awards, I'd call it
The Victory Vista.
I sure do get way more interactions with my Switch clips over there.
MUWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
