Many of the people that some of us want to follow have now left X.
Often this all gets framed as a "freedom of speech" issue. But I know first hand of women who in recent months on X have been harassed with death threats. When they've reported it has been ignored because the company simply lacks the resources/will to enforce those policies.
And so even if Threads is nothing more than a better-staffed clone that is enough for them.

- sneak 3y agoHow are illegal threats made by users the fault of the communications platform? We don’t vilify the phone company when someone uses a phone to make a bomb threat. Why is this different? You don’t report crime to the communications service provider. If someone makes a bomb threat you aren’t dialing 0 to tell the phone company.

I haven't created a threads account because they're blatantly asking me to share every data they could access + their awful content moderation rules. At least there are plenty of options for people to share their opinions.
