As the numbers get higher, my interest gets less and less.

A good example of the usefulness of social media platforms is tiktok. To start with it was a pointless platform, full of the young and beautiful dancing to shit music. It's still has plenty of that, but if you use the search function it has so reasonable content.

But threads can't be useful yet as nobody has figured out the application yet. Give it six months it might be okay but not yet.
