I haven't used threads and I never will, but it's nice to see that it's not a great user experience even for people who are used to meta.

I signed up and tied it. It’s utter chaos, forced algorithmic feed, you can’t even only view posts from people you follow, you’re force fed random crap from American celebs.

Perfect for the IG audience perhaps... I imagine they love celebs and shit.

This argument is the same as "Lemmy=tankies".

So i guess were all tankies because were on here.

No, the software is written by tankies. But now its used on thousands of instances, with all kinds of political views.

I think its the best technology that has arrived in a long time. Now we can talk without corporations in the middle.

You and me would not be able to talk like this without an american big tech corp being involved otherwise, which is just insane. Ok, there are forums still, but they dont have a lot of users. Lemmy could be a game changer.
