When I join threadiverse (summer 2023), soon everyone was talking about Threads and how it was about to destroy the whole thing.

Then nothing came of it and the whole convo kinda vanished.

Why didn't threads destroy threadiverse already?

Threads was a relatively bare-bones app when it launched. It didn't have many of the features that users had come to expect from other social media apps, such as the ability to post photos or videos, or to add filters or stickers.

I still wonder why they did that, like, what was the rush? Wasn't like Twitter was all of a sudden going to be good again if they waited.
