Threads is looking better and better. What I wanted from social media was:
* self-promotion from celebrities and rich people
* no control over my timeline
* strict prohibition of any sexual content
* nothing from europe
* no alt-text
* data harvesting to empower genocides
@maxkennerly Yes the more time I spend there the less I think of it.
One thing I've come to realize is that if you aren't famous you're not going to have any followers?
I am at 9 there after a day.
Twitter was good at suggesting accounts to follow, based on what people were sharing. Threads claims to do that, but people's timelines are so flooded with unwanted stuff that you are not going to get seen, I think.
@maxkennerly On the other hand, this article claims that Threads is "intuitive" in what it shows us.
So why does it feel so dumb and random?
