Re: Is Facebook killing freedom and liberty?
I joined threads...cause I had an Instagram account already. But I have no idea how it feeds me posts. Some I recognize as posters I did follow there. But then it feeds me local news and sports. I don't care about the sports. The college football only interests me while I watch a game.
So this will only be for poking at the phone during tv watching ads.

I don't have Twitter or Instagram and won't have Threads. there's not enough of me to go around.

Re: Is Facebook killing freedom and liberty?
I used to use Twitter as a sort of news source. It gave links to the news site stories. It still does. To do the same in Threads it will take some days to add those.

Re: Is Facebook killing freedom and liberty?
Twitter the last time posted...some half a year ago... was a little better functioning than Threads is at this point.
It just feeds too much. I followed a few posters under someone I knew from Twitter (she is still there too) with some 100 000 followers. But a lot more just junk feeds in had to mute a lot of them.
it is just not novel anymore. And I went thru 2 elections with twitter.

It's lacking hashtags, which for a social media app, is unfathomable.

Been years since I've bothered to log in there. Probably will now, just to try to keep their sticky fingers out. Thanks, Tero.
