Not surprising. What’s funny about this is the weirdness of fracturing the simple idea of a microblogging service.
Like right now there are people with four apps on their phone: mastodon, bluesky, threads and twitter. They may even use most of those pretty regularly … to what!!! post 200 character statements about trivial stuff?
Really does make the case for a federated protocol of some sort. Choosing your app, culture, community and moderation standards really can’t be tightly coupled to the platform anymore.

Well, Threads is at least aiming to do that and integrate with Mastodon, but the group mind has decided that this is bad.

I’m not part of that group mind, but I’m cynical that they will federate. From a business standpoint it doesn’t benefit them, so I’m betting it’s just a buzzword they’re using.
Not surprised really. People (myself included) just wanted to see what it’s like.
Why though? I’ll never understand this. Wasn’t Instagram already doing the same thing?
Maybe I’m too old. Get off my lawn!
You’ll never understand why people want to check out the latest app from a major tech company?
I get it if you aren’t interested personally, but it seems strange to not understand why people would want to try it.

Flight departed about a year ago, I’d say it took off.
It’s just that it looks more like a formation of Cessnas than a jumbo jet, which confuses some people.
Seven passengers boarded. The rest are still trying to decipher their boarding pass.
