Meta just launched a new app to counter Twitter, and it's called Threads. I haven't signed up on the platform yet.

Have you? Chime in.

No - and won't be signing up. But then, I don't 'do' Twitter either.

Of the two 'titans' - I prefer the humor and personality of Musk over Zuckerberg. Zuck assumes everyone on FB will jump to his new 'baby' - we'll see.

According to Yahoo Finance, they hit 30 million users in the first 7 hours. Also elsewhere it was reported they had system outages today also. Probably had too much traffic, they could handle at one point. The way Elon has been running Twitter, "Threads " will probably end up with more users than Twitter.

Uhm, yeah, also ... speakin' actschwl cakes ...

tbh I would prefer to gaze naht upon all four, whatevah the sequence they jigglin' 'bout in, plus whatevah their dangle-to-enspangle kinda form.

Shall they be wearin' sum kinda soots?

Yanno, for kinda modesty?

Anyways, datcourse an' ditzcourse jus' been smoochied into one for your imbibin' pleasure.

The caveat here is that you need your IG creds to use Threads.

If Zucky wins the cage fight he's been talking about, I'll join his toy. If he loses, I'll go with Musk's toy. Unless, I decide it's not worth my time.

you need your IG creds to use Threads

And it's reported you cannot 'quit' Threads without also leaving IG.

Edit: I wonder how many of the supposed now 30 million 'signups' read the page that tells what info may be stored/shared by Threads....

According to the "Data Linked to You" page found on Apple devices, the following information may be collected by Threads and linked to your identity:

health and fitness
financial info
contact info
user content
browsing history
usage data
diagnostics
purchases
location (both general and specific)
contacts
search history
identifiers
sensitive info
other data

The list above is why Zuck is not releasing in Europe - Threads would violate privacy and other laws there.

I'm neither for nor against Threads - won't affect me in any way. But I'm shocked that so many people will simply 'sign up' for an app and not seem to care what personal information they may be handing over.

  I believe Heaven operates on a simlr principyool.
  
  Only it's 'bout gainin' access.
  
  Thing we know 'bout the Zuckstah is he finished off MySpace by devourin' it alive.
  
  By way of almost total contrast, El Nylono mebbe jus' in it for the money.
  
  So what is up for grabs here?
  
  I guess it is a yooniniversally incloosive all-media meetup space.
  
  My view as a specialist vestibyool connoisseuress?
  
  Likely I could trap flies, but FFS why would you wanna do that?
  
  Plus also multiple tunnels are intrinsically more excitin' an' invitin' than funnels.
  
  It is a flouance thing.
  
  Compared to love/hate interactions between plankton, this whole darn scenario is a surefire bet for commandin' our attention for like 3 minutes.
  
  * nope ... wait ... ima gaht that last line entirely wrong *

I understand that you have tried using hashtags but encountered difficulties. You're curious about how the platform's algorithm works and enables people to discover your thread.

I mean yeah i might join threads but it depends on how much it holds value or in other terms how much its gonna benefit me , its funny and important at the same time.

But in my opinion twitter will better in future if things goes smoothly.

it seem you will tend to have followers " automatic " if you got post something daily. After I using it ever since it started till now.

Not sure is " fake accounts or what " like you tend to get from IG.

The retention rate of these followers in thread seem never drop unlike in IG you tend to have followers after few days drop and keep dropping.
