Threads will probably only keep getting worse with time. Over the past year I've noticed a massive increase in ads on Instagram... Right now Threads is basically ad-free, but that won't last forever. I know maybe one of two people that sometimes post on Thread, but it doesn't particularly feel like there's a strong sense of community. I think the era of public social media has kinda come to an end, and most interesting conversations have moved to private group chats and community Discord servers. The only people I've seen participating regularly on Threads are people with massive followings, and even most of those barely seem to get any meaningful engagement. Right now I just use Twitter to follow artists and a few tech personalities. But for most posters past a certain number of followers opening their replies is just utterly pointless. It's full of memes and irrelevant replies trying to farm views or engagement by leeching off the OP.
