A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Threads helps itself to an absurd amount of personal information. That, combined with the fact that you have to DELETE Instagram to fully delete your Threads account, is absolutely ridiculous.
So far, I’ve yet to read a review that enthusiastically endorses Threads as a Twitter replacement. Caveats abound. This could have been truly significant, but in his greed, Zuck dropped the ball.
TBF if you're deleting threads for privacy reasons, you'd have to be a moron not to delete instagram too.
I think it's hilarious when anyone gets outraged about privacy when they are using a Meta app. The ignorance just makes me laugh.
Agreed. Meta and privacy are mutually exclusive. I don't think Instagram users are particularly concerned/knowledgeable about privacy.
