Just created an account on Threads with my private Insta account, and first off, Shams is already on there? Damn. Second, and more importantly: how in the hell in the year of our lord, 2023, does a social media app launch with literally zero accessibility features?

No alt text, you can't prevent GIFs and videos from autoplaying, etc. Absolutely awful.

Also, you should be able to switch accounts without logging out of the app. Pretty dumb that you can't switch easily.

@CityHoosier It kinda has the feel like they rushed it out. Probably looking to cash in on Elon's latest screw-up to get the most people to move over there. They have a lot of things to change if they want to keep people there.

@rocketcheddar

It was confirmed this morning by several tech news sites that it was rushed because of Elon. It wasn't supposed to come out yet.
