Ok — this could be the start of the continuation of the mass migration from X (considering Elon is deprecating the Block feature on his network), another well-timed launch from Meta!

@maxdo why do you say that?

@chrismessina I think Elon deprecated the block feature because people where blocking blue-badgers as a protest. Reminds me a bit when china bans white paper because people were using white paper to say nothing as a protest. So we are seeing where this is going with the one supreme ruler ethos etc.

@sentry_co Here it’s a choice between Elon and Zuckerberg, both of them making solo decisions for the platforms. Either one you choose isn’t great, Zuckerberg has a worse history.

@chrismessina On my opinion block isn’t a big feature to give up the platform for, Threads had a good marketing campaign and growth initially but most people haven’t got to stick to it. If you switch to threads, you’re changing one platform with a super rich CEO to another platform with also a super rich CEO.

Thumbs up: Snappiness, low latency in general (except with posting) Can improve: Remove modal-style reply so that one can see the full thread and optionally scroll. Also, WTH is up with all the spam / clearly ChatGPT-generated comments here? Is it really that lucrative to game PH?!? (yes, I've reported the half-a-dozen+ crap comments)

Threads really looking like a product born dead, visually like an instagram fork without images or reels pushed onto you... I migrated to nostr instead, no ads or instagram integrations 😌

@maxdo on the contrary: it looks like a highly usable minimalistic interface modern product. Ready to spread its wings. With a virtually zero level of toxicity. A pleasure to use.

@paulbalogh_line21 Interesting opinion but I don’t think it reflects reality, for this kind of app there’s nothing to use, it’s made to consume information content creators share and I think it’s a matter of time before they start showing ads there if it’ll still be alive.

@maxdo so you are not talking about "Threads" you are talking about "this kind of app". What kind? Twitter-like? (i.e. social media based on ads)? Of course they will show some ads in the future, but Twitter sorely needed competition. Now they have it.

@paulbalogh_line21 This kind - centralized.

@maxdo I am on Mastodon, nowhere near Threads in terms of quality or engagement. Sorry to say that.
