On Threads, my algorithmic timeline is full of right wing garbage, thirst traps, and Facebook employees complaining about Apple.

If I point this out, my replies fill with Facebook employees telling me it’s my fault for not following enough people, or that I should just switch to the “Following” tab every time the app launches.

I suspect the real problem is Threads has cooled off. With fewer posts coming in, it doesn’t take much engagement for trash to float to the top.
