Technology

i don't use twitter anyway, so my plan is to enjoy this virtual boxing match between musk and zuckerberg until they actually follow through on their real punchup.

Fuck no.

This is going to be popular in places that are already deep on the Facebook ecosystem, such as India. But I really hope it doesn't everywhere else.

I think I'm a bit of an outlier here, because I tried it (I already had an IG account) - but the bombardment of influencer-types, big-name brands, and having zero-control over my feed gave me more than enough reasons to leave for good.

Njet.

I find it weird that no one is linking it. I literally had to find it on APKMirror.

I boycott all the products of big corporations as much as possible. I'm not even slightly tempted to try Threads.

I won't but I also cannot, because EU and stuff...

I'm still waiting for Blue Sky, but at this point its either Mastodon or something else (like Threads) because Blue Sky just seems to be taking an eternity. Something is going to replace Twitter and at this point I just don't know what it will be.

I’m interested to see how Threads connects with other social media platforms (like Mastodon), but I’m not using an app with such an invasive privacy policy.

I am. I'm a digital marketer by trade. Gotta try everything. Am I going to stick with it? Who knows!

Depends on how many of those data slurping categories I can disable on iPhone. I would at least like to try it.

I'll try it. I don't really care about data privacy very much and neither do a lot of other people until the data receiver is someone they dislike.

How much data is Reddit, Tumblr, Uber, Snapchat, WhatsApp, AirBnB or any other app getting? Who cares as long as I don't hate their CEO.

I can`t, even if I wanted to. Thanks, EU!
