It is awful but I figure it is going to fail anyway. Why? Main stream social already all comes down to two dominant players (outside short form like tik tok and video like ScrewTube) it is already split between Shitter and FaceFuck. FackFuck is mostly boomers and older GenX, they like the long form shit, the communities, groups, marketplace, etc. Shitter is all people that like the micro blog format.
Most on them are there cuz politicians, celebrities, etc. are on them and not "social media influencers" who are more on InstaGram, TikTok, YouTube, etc. What I mean is those platforms have "native celebrities" meaning they were made on those platforms, a lot like podcasters. We have "fame" as podcasters built as podcasters. We are literally known for podcasting, not known people who also have a podcast.
FaceFuck instead has accounts by celebs made off platform, and the boomers family members are there too for sharing pics. Shitter has every governor, every former POTUS, every celeb, etc. People are there for the shit show. So how do you get people who want the shitter format off facefuck, the answer is you don't. How do you get them off shitter, the answer is, you don't they already have what they want. Threads is the answer to the question no one other than Zuc's marketing people asked.
So this thing is likely to be about as effective as when Google tried to beat facefucker with Google+. Remember Google+, no, no one does. Thats the point. Threads offers NOTHING new for FB users or Twitter users. It is a dead man walking and the real lesson is all that shit that Threads collects is the same shit all the fuckers are collecting already.
This is true.
BUT
You can’t get off threads without deleting your Insta when you realize it’s worthless so…
The cage match is:
Will Elon bankrupt Twitter faster than…
Zucker can kill his golden goose Insta?
That’s the match.
#nostr for the win!
