Will people here use/try Meta's #threads when available? Would love to know the reasons or if it would be just for fun/curiosity.

The amount of data collected is insane imo.

I’ll try it.

Contrary to the majority consensus here, I already utilize Instagram so this data has already been collected for years. (An unfortunate “what’s new”)

We’ll see if it catches on at all…it will be nice once we can see “Threads” from Mastodon so that I can use any of the more privacy respecting apps out there, but until then I think it’s worth seeing how things work.
