Nope, I hate Meta and everything it stands for. I will never use their products.

I dunno if I'd use the app itself, but I am hopeful it gets traction among "normal" people because I miss following my friends on Mastodon. Threads seems to be the best way to get average non-techy people to accept the fediverse.

Now, I don't trust Meta at all. But I hope I can at least follow my friends' Threads from Mastodon or here on Kbin.

We are all already there baby. JOIN THE CHAOS.

Once hashtags (& maybe trends) get added, we will get a honeymoon phase, before it all gets bloated TF. Give it a few months and we will have Threads Stories, THCAST for long-form audio/podcasts (with AI transcription), e-commerce Thread Shops...

Have never had a Facebook account. Have never had an Instagram account. No, I'm not about to sign up to Threads.

I do have WhatsApp, it's the main messaging app that everyone I know uses, so I don't have much choice.

I didn't use twitter but started using mastodon about a month ago, indent know why I'd need to use threads.

I hang onto Instagram begrudgingly, definitely won't be trying anything new from Meta.

No, I don't think I'll try '6'

I try already but it's a little boring for me, I already had Instagram to talk to my friend so I don't see purpose to use a social media to just write things with the people I already followed in Instagram when I just can send a DM or ask for other social media they use if I don't want to use IG. Its my opinion

I will definitely be installing it whenever it comes to Android out of curiosity if not anything else.

Nope. As it will just end like reddit or meta. And i dont want anything to do with that

lol no

Zero interest whatsoever. The only way i'd see them is when people post their shit elsewhere and it's worth seeing.

I only ever visited twitter to see content posted by people that was cross shared elsewhere. I have zero interest in utilizing platforms similar to it and would prefer something in the same style as reddit because it allows for everything - self sites with selfposting, interest based sites where you talk about similar topics, and also generalist sites.

I just can't help it when local news happens and it's linked to a sub and the source is what it is.

I'd rather chew glass

I don't really care so, no.

I'd try it out if they paid me for all my data with very detailed explanations of how it will be used.

In other words, no.

No, won't sign up on that privacy nightmare. Though, once it does support ActivityPub, I'll probably follow people who are not on Mastodon yet.

Hell no, I'll be avoiding it like the plague, just like the rest of facecuck's services.

Out of curiosity I might would've but not for long term and given that it seems to require an Instragram account I'm not really interested.

Hell no.

I'm still waiting for Blue Sky, but at this point its either Mastodon or something else (like Threads) because Blue Sky just seems to be taking an eternity. Something is going to replace Twitter and at this point I just don't know what it will be.

I don't use Twitter, don't see a reason to use a FB variant of it.

This is going to be popular in places that are already deep on the Facebook ecosystem, such as India. But I really hope it doesn't everywhere else.

I’m still on IG so I’ll have an account by default I guess. I may take a peek to see how they implemented it, but it’s hard to imagine staying.

i don't use twitter anyway, so my plan is to enjoy this virtual boxing match between musk and zuckerberg until they actually follow through on their real punchup.

no

I am on kbin.social. I worry that if kbin doesn't defederate from Threads, maybe kbin's servers will be flooded with Threads data (i am not techy, so maybe this would be a minor issue). Also, if someone in the Fediverse but outside of Threads starts communicating with someone who has a Threads account, will the non-Threads person now have all of their data that's now on Threads servers collected?

@edu4rdshl @m0bi13 of course not!

Fuck no.

Considering I'm already an Instagram user and I would like this platform better than Instagram, I don't see any reason why I shouldn't make the trade
