My point is that Threads is being hyped up as a Twitter-alternative sans baggage whereas it doesn’t really matter because both take lots and lots of your data
I just don’t think data privacy is even in the top 10 reasons why the average Threads user is on Threads. They’re on Threads because Twitter is getting worse and less usable by the day due to Musk’s erratic decisions, and Threads offers them something that’s functional, free, and not rate-limited.
I certainly don’t want to embrace threads due to data privacy issues, but I also don’t use Twitter.
