Gonna thread
I mean, it's right here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.instagram.barcelona
Just in Beta mode so only certain people can download it.
On the one hand, "thread" has become a meme/joke in and of itself and conjures up some of the most insufferable people on Twitter.
on the other hand... it's not a bad name.
(fuck Meta, though).

I hate meta but lets be real.
this is where everyone is going to migrate to. The other alternatives dont have a chance with them migrating easily all IG users. + all celebrities and notable people, your username on IG will transfer so no need to worry about your handle or fighting for it.... yeah this is the one im afraid

Nice. Haha someone from my generation got there before me. It was my first thought!
This might be true but the people that are complaining about Dorsey owning a portion of Bluesky can't be out here supporting Zuckerberg. I don't care as long as moderation is decent. It's never going to be perfect but Twitter doesn't even try. I've reported accounts on Bluesky and they have actually been actioned I have never had a single report actioned on Twitter since Elon took over and I'm talking posts calling for violence for crying out loud lol.
You're going to get pushback on this saying unless there's one giant replacement/clone for Twitter no-one's going to use it.
We've had the same arguments in the BSky/Mastodon threads.
Interesting. But yeah today would be a good day to launch a social media app. Specially if this rate limit bullshit continues for much longer.
But... you can't? I mean, you can, but I use Twitter to follow specific accounts and if they're not on whatever platform I'm on then what's the point?
ThreadHeads in the house!
Don't Thread in bed
"so, let's take a minute to unthread what happened in the Trump trial today"

As everyone else has correctly said, fuck Meta.
But yeah… since Bluesky apparently never wants to actually start inviting users, Threads is going to easily win this whole Twitter replacement race.
This app will launch with ALL Instagram users instantly having an account. It's going to be huge.

What accounts? The 800 limit is death. Most people will make the move.
Fuck Zuck
The point of things like Twitter/Reddit is the massive userbase, otherwise a Discord will do

I'm going to fucking scream if the only one to make a suitable replacement for twitter is fucking Facebook.
Why do all the other ones have to be so obtuse and weird with their limited space servers and other nonsense?
