I agree, but I try to be pragmatic. Everyone is looking for the twitter killer that will destroy it in a blaze of glory, but I am fine with it slowly bleeding users and value as Threads and Mastodon (and Bluesky?) get better and gains more users.
But is Meta/Facebook gaining any better? Remember, this was the company that gladly shared information with Cambridge Analytica to affect the 2016 US elections. And they’re collecting an absolutely monstrous amount of data from each Thread user.
Now if only there was an alternative that had nothing to do with Facebook.
oh… wait…

There is Mastodon. You just have to get used to it.
Mastodon: it’s harder to find your friends, but you get to keep them.
