    Creators of mastadon actually looked at Twitter, saw a burning dumpster and decided "yeah we are going to copy every aspect of this". Same for blusky.

    And same for Meta with Threads.

    Dont forget BlueSky.

    We have no-less than two new Twitters for liberals that rage quited Twitter cuz of Elon, one for "tech-savvy" and one for non.

    both suck, even for them.

    Honest question from someone in whose country facebook's/meta's products never were popular to begin with : People actually used Threads? i thought it was completly stillborn platform.

    I am under the impression that there are people in the states who try to
    use it. Not sure how useful it is, though. Then again, I am to the point where I am not sure that any of the social media platforms are "useful."

    Used? It seems there are people who currently do use it. I don't use Threads, but Facebook tells me some of my friends use Threads.

    Not for anything other than advertising. Everyone loves ads.
