Article Update: In less than 2 days, #Threads somehow gets even worse!

https://rentsuru.medium.com/its-been-5-minutes-and-instagram-s-threads-already-sucks-f10d507807ed

My feed is now all those interesting people, places, & publications that I followed on #Instagram over the years reacting & replying to celebrities & brands like Dunkin Donuts and fucking Paris Hilton.

Or worse, seeing celebrities & brands replying to each other.

Awesome. 😬

i’m totally fine with brands and celebrities having their own social media tbh. i’m honestly quite glad threads has made it clear what their desired userbase is.

Can we lock that room and throw away the key?

Yes! Each instance will have that ability, it’s the beauty of the fediverse

Following up on this, I’m hoping that some journalism organization sets up a “default” instance for verified journists to post from. It was nice having verified Twitter instances for this purpose.
