Wild seeing Gruber, of all people, spending the last week(s) defending a meta product and refuting negativity about it.
That and his seemingly concerning hatred for Europe because Threads hasn't launched there yet...
That was a weird one too
I don’t think he’s defending a Meta product as much as he is calling out Sensor Tower for being scummy at best if not full of shit.
The negativity was pretty asinine though. Nothing he said, I think, was wrong. I remember Mastodon people (rightfully) reacting quite annoyed at similar reports on how usage had peaked and was dropping again, just because not all the new users stuck around.
The news industry falling for completely made-up metrics about social media engagement is the most Charlie-Brown-kicking-a-football ass thing I can think of.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
