ChatGPT kindly summarized it:
Elon Musk is challenging conventional business practices with a unique strategy for his tech ventures. Mark Zuckerberg, inspired by Musk’s tactics, created Threads, a potential rival to Twitter. However, Threads’ user experience is disappointing, as it lacks control over followers and displays a non-chronological timeline. Despite its flaws, Threads may succeed due to its appeal to brands and the AdTech industry for data collection and marketing purposes. While not user-friendly, it could still become profitable through data scraping and advertising.
Its a 500 word article…
i would say, yes, that is a good summary about the topic WITHOUT why the stuff turns out that way. For people wanting the “why” too i suggest reading the article
Eventually Threads will be able to sort chronologically and will be able to filter just on who the user follows. It’ll be IG without pictures in essence, and people will love it. Not my cup of tea (although I use IG occasionally to follow specific accounts) but bully for them. I like the idea of Twitter becoming less and less relevant at the very least.
