You are not logged in. If you use a Fediverse account that is able to follow users, you can follow this user.

gonna go on a slush run and try something new I just learned… brb
2·1 year agoCan confirm. Was like: “Memmy is fine!” — **Narrator:**nope. It was not.
4·1 year agoI literally had someone request to “follow me” who then immediately text me and ask — what is this thing that it just put me on.
They are definitely inflating numbers and making it hard to drop user count because deleting threads deletes your Instagram too.
You’ll only ever hear about total users now never “active” would be my guess which after a few days or weeks will be significantly less than the “10 million” that supposedly “signed up”
9·1 year agoI’m talking about the wall in their rooms though that they can use to listen in when they want, you have no private conversations.
3·1 year agoMy understanding is that Mastadon and Lemmy are both federated and I’ve seen Mastadon posts in my Lemmy feed somehow so it’s not unreasonable to assume threads could eventually populate its way over here at some point.
Except I was prompted to create an account no less than like 2-3 times in the 2-3 times I opened Instagram after it launched. It’s not automatic but it is damn near two step enrollment. I’d like to see ”active users” two weeks/months from now after the enrollment storm passes to see who actually stayed with it.
For social media that’s the plan
1984 - George Orwell tried to warn us.

It’s meta. It was ruined in the conception stage. No way were there good actors at play at any point in this process.
I loved Reddit and Twitter until they made it clear users were not the focus anymore. I’d never lock myself behind those systems again. I made that mistake twice. I use beautifully built 3rd party apps that were cut off at the kneecaps with no warning. I’m here to stay. For some, that meta data mine will be all they want / need, so good for them?
It’s garbage and people will love it.
Don’t threaten me with a good time
It’s garbage and people love it. 🐑
