Someone was asking on Threads if "anyone actually uses Spotlight" on #macOS, because they'd never used it at all. It blew my mind. I can barely imagine using a Macintosh without Spotlight.
@collin This is sort of thing is a known issue with the Threads algorithm. It wants to put posts in front of people that will get interactions. So there are a lot of grifters who will post things like “Has anyone tried this ‘food’ stuff before?”, and people will comment. They said they’re trying to crack down on it, but it seems to still be around. https://www.theverge.com/2024/10/7/24264382/threads-engagement-bait-problem-mosseri-meta
