   Are you active on #Threads by #Meta?
   What do you think of @threads?

     @MarcusAnthonyCyganiak I used to be. Then, I had some very sus interactions with their employees directly on Threads. It was then that I decided I didn't want to be a part of a website that says they're implementing AP in completely good faith, while doing so many things that screams the exact opposite.

     I'm glad they're even slightly doing it, sorta, kinda, but the way they're doing it is very sus and not in favor of Fediverse at *all*.

     @MarcusAnthonyCyganiak yeah...I hate algorithms like that.🤦♂️

     Thankfully Fediverse exists.

     @BeAware I was very active on #Threads, but this summer, after one year of use, I slowed my efforts on the platform.

     My posts no longer receive the volume of reactions that they once did because their algorithm is such that you must be extremely active to hold your position of being seen. I just don't have time for that. I want to post whenever I want, frequently or infrequently, but still be seen. That's not achievable with @threads.
