    Yeah I’ve long given up. It’s just the same spam from Intagram. Everyone’s grifting and producing low effort content as a “career”.

      That’s the kind of stuff that always happens when you try to make social media profitable. It’s not meant to be but they try it anyway. Now I’m not saying it should be charity work, but a self sustaining smaller community is far better than a shitposty, grifty, chatgpt-bot ridden clusterfuck.

        Yeah but Twitter has gotten so much worse. It used to be 30% trolls, “entrepreneurs” and cryptoshills and now it’s like 60%.

        It used to be somewhat enjoyable to read through tweets about recent events.

        Yeah but you release a new thing with the same problems of 2012 then its kinda sad ngl. Threads is just so low effort.

      I’ve seen a shift on Threads recently. Seeing more news-related content on my “for you” feed. A lot of the “influencers” have stopped spam posting since the initial hype died down.

      They also added a following feed.
