I respectfully disagree. I'm in wait and see mode re: Threads, as I expect we'll see important new features soonish.

I am not open to your ahistorical take on Google Chat and XMPP.

Google didn't do anything wrong by using an open standard.

They didn't do anything wrong by building a good interface that people liked to use.

And they didn't do anything wrong by disconnecting from the network when the spam and harassment outweighed the benefit to their users.

We, the XMPP community, failed to capitalize on success by diversifying the network. It's our own fault not enough nodes were there.

@jerry Do you have any thoughts on the pros/cons of news/media companies running their own instance. I've worked for a number and Twitter has never been the 'engagement spinner' that other social media platforms are, but on the other hand a lot of journalists and editors like(d) the brevity of it and used it a lot. I'm kind of betting my current employers SRE and community moderation teams aren't up for another potential cesspit, but you never know!
