This week Twitter got yet another competitor: Meta’s Threads. Enough is enough. Don’t join. This has to stop.
Paraphrasing:
“I hate it when there’s a diverse market with multiple different options in active evolution. I actually preferred when we had a monopoly and everybody fucking hated it.”
The twitter meltdown is really generating the worst takes ever huh… Did we forget that people used to call Twitter “the hellsite” until a few months ago, when it was better?
Wired has sucked for a long while now
The stance from this author sounds like someone who doesn’t want to have a dozen social media accounts. If only there was a way to have one account that could participate across a wide variety of sites. We could call it… The togethercosmos!
I can definitely understand being annoyed by too many options, the Paradox of Choice is simply a limitation of our brains. But what I find it interesting that the cutting line is after Facebook/Meta jumped into in. They weren’t saying Mastodon was enough Twitter alternatives.
I’ll join what I likes, thanks. (Although I’m not amped for Threads. Weren’t those the long alien spores that burned to the touch in the Dragonriders of Pern books?)

Yes they were. It is also the name of the most realistic and brutal Movie/Documentary of a nuke war Threads
