The funniest thing about threads so far is that anyone who has been in software for a while can immediately see what happened here: they reduced scope to launch an early milestone.

There's a lot that feels very incomplete. Basic functionality missing, no web UI. The "threads" icon on web just switches between dark mode and light mode.

It's very obvious that this is unpolished, alpha-level stuff that got launched. No AP support, that's "coming soon".

@David @rodhilton Going from Twitter to Zuckerberg is... interesting.
@aerique @rodhilton I'm on Instagram and Facebook, so... 🤷‍♂️

You know you're allowed to use several social media, right?
@David @rodhilton Yup, I'm on five different ones at the moment.
