oliverdarcy Threads post "Grim, but Charlie is spot on here. You're renting the furniture on social media." cwarzel original post includes comment and screenshot of an article excerpt: a thought on twitter spiraling + threads launch "Personally, all of this helped make very clear the extent to which I don't control what I have built across social media.
