Meta’s next app will try to make Instagram the new Twitter

Will people here use/try Meta’s #threads when available? Would love to know the reasons or if it would be just for fun/curiosity.

The amount of data collected is insane imo.

Nah, giving all my personal data to Meta for an account I’d hardly use doesn’t seem worth it.

I was all for “giving it a shot” just to see what the hub bub was about.

Other lemmings point out just how many permissions I have to give Meta. So, I’ve lost interest. Never was a big tweeter anyway.
