Network Effects > Privacy
With all the privacy invasive things that Threads tracks people with on its app, this is still proof that network effects trump privacy any day when it comes to social networks.
Privacy as a feature that Mastodon touts is simply and clearly not enough to sway normal users to use it, after many Twitter fuck ups by Elon and over 6 years of Mastodon's existence.
- matthasfun 3y agoYeah I was thinking the same. 2 million accounts in 2 hours is wild. Not surprising just wild to me. According to https://mastodon.social/@mastodonusercount https://mastodon.social/@mastodonusercount there are about 13m mastodon accounts across all instances. Threads might pass this by the time I wake up.
