Actually, everything Meta is terrible.
Fuck off Mark.
Exactly. Zuckerberg is a POS. Folks are only talking about this because X/Twitter is such a dumpster fire, not because Threads is good.
What's sad is that people aren't talking about Mastodon nearly as much as they are talking about Threads and X. It just doesn't seem to get much publicity outside of the fediverse.
well, why would people who use Fediverse options talk about using those options on non-Fediverse platforms? Other than the occasional "hey I use Mastodon and it's great." Not the kind of thing you'd talk about all the time.
I can understand why people wouldn't specifically talk about the fediverse on other sites. It just seems like there is a lot of coverage of X and Meta in the news, but there doesn't seem to have been even a passing mention of fediverse sites in most of what I've seen. I guess the more established social media sites are still a lot more significant than fediverse alternatives though.
There is one undeniable non-terribleness in Threads - it is not Xitter.
Yep, apart from Oculus. Makes sim racing 🤌for the money, I haven't looked at FB for a decade. Awful.
