"Threads is a mobile-only experience at the moment and users can only make posts, write comments and follow people on the platform's mobile app."
You lost me at "mobile-only" 🙃
@fribbledom hey how else are they gonna harvest all the juicy personal data that's in people's phones
🦞🚴🥔
@fribbledom In a very roundabout way, Threads being mobile-only has led me to discover that scrolling Instagram on desktop with AdBlock running is a much better experience than the mobile app.
Threads being mobile-only (or mobile-first or whatever) ought to tell us everything we need to know about what they want to do with our data.
@fribbledom I guess browsers don't collect enough personal information.

@fribbledom I use no zuckservices so I got no invite.
Maybe just as well?
@fribbledom That's only because it's easier for a browser to have an ad blocker.
@fribbledom it does work on Windows Subsystem for Android if you really want it on a Desktop. But yeah, you lost me at "Instagram".
