Threads is just another threat to privacy
Tbh the biggest threat is Meta’s ability to manipulate public opinion. They’ve used it to great lenghts to make the world a worse place.
Valid and very good point here!
And that’s why I won’t install it ever. Just like other Meta products. I also will delete Reddit soon(I moved to Lemmy from there)
Except threads already has 4x more users than mastadon.
I doubt they really have. Meta just imported all Instagram accounts into Threads and at the same time made it impossible to delete your new account, without deleting yours on Instagram as well.
I guess many people created an account to try but we need to wait to see the number of user stabilize.
Also, it seems the only way to emove your Threads account is to remove your instagram account …
I’m actually enjoying talking to people I know on Threads ngl. I can’t wait till they bring fediverse support and I can talk to them through Mastodon (the less info I give them directly the better).
We’re all deciding what to do with you right now. Tyrael has the deciding vote.
Hahaha, if it makes you feel better, I’ll most likely just abandon Threads after they integrate with ActivityPub. It will be nice to talk to my friends in a Twitter type environment as no one really used Mastadon let alone Twitter.
**<gives honest opinion on something, gets downvoted>
I agree, honestly. Most of my friends will never be interested in something like Mastadon. I’d have to talk to them via Facebook anyhow, and I’m interested to see how this plays out.
