RE: Follow Friday: Threadbare

This is the first I'm hearing of "Threads". I hate Facebook so much that my mind probably switched off and filtered out any news I saw online concerning them. The idea of using their app makes me want to throw up in my own mouth haha.
Having said that, a lot of marketers probably jumped on it since you can usually get a lot of followers in the first few weeks of an app launching so you can probably make some kind of money from it. I'm going to be giving that one a pass.

LOL! You did well to avoid hearing about it. Obviously millions did hear and jumped on board. I'm not joining any more centralised platforms unless I can't avoid it.
!BEER
I had a quick look into it and I think I know why so many people joined. They were migrated from Instagram and Facebook haha. It's an artificially inflated number :)
I think you have to manually set up your account. I have an Insta account I don't use, but have not even looked at Threads.
Same here lol and then my brain said, hang on, that’s in the spam folder of your memory, you read about them but promptly forgot about them. My brain does this for things like the Daily Mail and so on if I ever encounter that. All the same kind of thing.
