The moment they tied it to Instagram it became useless for many people. It overlooks that people have different reasons for engaging in each of the social media networks. Plus - the UI was instantly off-putting. What the heck was all this crap in my feed and now I have to figure out how to get rid of it and reset to something I might actually find interesting? And mobile only? Check please... The only reason I use FB and Instagram are because for people whose businesses interact with the public, it's an unfortunate necessity. Twitter is just fun - for me it actually feels a lot like the pre-www days, where you would encounter scholars and interesting people from around the world and they would speak candidly. So by tying Threads to Instagram (which for me means work) it failed to produce a solution for my Twitter use case.
