FuckOff

See, I don’t mind graffiti in my lower class neighborhood but it’s gotta be good graffiti.

Don’t just write your dumb tag in one single color and run off - no.

Pick a nice color palette. Consider some complementary colors. Maybe some shading. A unique font. Anything.

My rent is gonna go up regardless. At least give me something to appreciate. Sheesh.

Zero sympathy for anyone who lost their money on NFTs or BitCoin.

OceanGate submersible level stupidity anyone should’ve seen coming.

I’m not sure how you can see it any other way.

They had a successful platform (Instagram) and piggybacked a new platform on top and are counting the users toward their numbers.

If Zuckerbag released Threads without being tied to Instagram, it’d be a queef in the wind of a userbase.

It’s a clever strategy. For sure. I won’t pretend it’s not.

But seeing how “Notes” went - I don’t think it’s gonna go very far.

It’s like if McDonald’s started selling hotdogs from their stores under a separate store within their restaurants.

“McDog’s has over 1 billion served!”

No, McDonald’s does - you just put another product under the same roof by a different name.

Why?

Because Instagram did the same BS with their “Notes” feature recently and now nobody uses it.

You were automatically enrolled and it showed up on your feed and three months later, it’s crickets.

As much as I hate Twitter, I don’t think Threads is going to make a dent in the long run.

I fucking KNEW it.

35 million users my asshole - they’re just counting existing Instagram accounts.

I mean, nothing is forever.

As cheesy as that sounds, it’s especially true in tech.

Someone can/will come along and fuck up Lemmy too eventually, probably.

Gonna take like 15 years though so for now, it is the place to be.

I was there for the great Digg to Reddit migration and now the great Reddit to Lemmy migration.

They can destroy our aggregators but they’ll never be able to destroy our community. 🤌

I feel so included. :)
