    “Meta's approach meant users leapfrogged the disorienting “now what?” moment that has blighted the sign-up process on other Twitter clones. That alone makes Threads a larger threat to Twitter than anything else we've seen so far.” https://www.bloomberg.com/...

    @AdamSinger That article doesn't have a shred of evidence to back up its opinion. He literally just says “it's sterile” without a single example of how. (Reason: the app itself is fine (for a beta))

    My review of Threads for @theipaper: it's sterile and dull - and run by Meta https://inews.co.uk/...

    I mean what did you expect? Posters don't use Instagram. It's travel influencers and the goldfish demo. Probably not ‘for’ you guys https://inews.co.uk/...

    lol remember when we all hated meta / facebook and now we're back at it with the new shiny toy
  • @biminibabes @biminibabes on threads
    I feel like I'm back on the old blue bird but before it was taken over by bigots and venom 🥹 It feels good to be back

  • @sandofsky Ben Sandofsky on threads
    The pitch meeting for Threads: “It's Twitter but swap nazis for brands.”

    Because the golden rule of every new social network is it starts off only talking about itself... https://www.ft.com/content/ae7dd329- 990a-41e0-8e3c-2dc54b443b78
