  1. It’s just teeing up discovery I’d guess the IP they are concerned about is algorithms and scaling,the two obvious places other competitors struggled
  2. As with email, where we can all be on different providers and still communicate together, Threads integrating into the fediverse (where Mastadon already is) would allow them to work together. I could post on Mastadon and you could follow my Mastadon account on Threads and see that post. It’s the way this should have worked all along, but is not intuitive enough for general consumers at low scale. With someone like Meta pushing it forward it will finally be more easily embraced
  3. Mr Beast would like to bribe you for a follow https://www.threads.net/t/CuXrpemRV3m/?igshid=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==
  4. Over on Mastodon:
  5. Lurch replied to tx 3 putt's topic in Cloak Room
    Same on job and rental apps
  6. If Threads connects to the fediverse it could actually help Mastadon. Being untethered to a specific provider is the way. It’s highly ironic that it takes Meta to help it scale into viability
  7. Yep, and they fear META investing in solving that problem via scraping. The demand for it is at an all time high, for sure
  8. My guess is they’re preempting attempts by meta to enable importing follow lists. Software companies always look for ā€œstickinessā€ to make transitioning to competitors difficult, and this is theirs
  9. Sounds like an aggressive but reasonable goal. I was in a very similar place (47, 260#) and calorie counting on LoseIt has worked very well for me. Personally I’ve not seen any added value in fasting for me. Sticking to my calorie budget is already sufficiently challenging that I’d be concerned about burning out by adding additional barriers.
  10. To be clear, that controls what notifications you get, not what content appears on Home tab
  11. I read somewhere Meta or Insta previously had an app called Threads that they killed. Probably still had naming rights secured from that project

  13. Head of Insta and presumably Threads https://www.threads.net/@mosseri?igshid=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==
  14. Texaslonghorns (athletic dept) now on Subs in thread https://www.threads.net/@texaslonghorns?igshid=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==
  15. From my experience so far, randoms seem to lessen the more people you follow. There’s probably a setting on how many threads they show you and it will fill with your follows first, and then randoms
  16. Not that I’ve found. Plenty of threads mentioning it
  17. No nudity https://www.threads.net/t/CuVcNkWtFU_/?igshid=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==
  18. Skeet Utaustintx is on
  19. Texasfootball is on
  20. You can. Hit the paper airplane
