I mean yeah you're on a Lemmy instance which means you probably wouldn't see much from threads anyway. It's really Mastodon users who should be having the conversation

Lol YouTube as a business is basically impossible to run. There isn't going to be a place to move on to.

What they're doing is making it very easy to sign up. You just need to go to your Instagram and click a few buttons and you've created a threads account.

[–] ggadget6@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Correct. I don't care because I already use Facebook messenger and Instagram which do exactly the same things. However if there's another good option of interacting with threads users without using the app that would be nice

How do you see the number of cycles?

[–] ggadget6@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago

No. Instagram has over a billion users (maybe 2 billion at this point). Threads "only" has 10 million. They've just made it really easy to sign up from your Instagram account.

I agree. I think people who support the fedipact greatly underestimate the network effect. To be honest, I think this place is never going to get big--it has the same issues that Linux desktop has. It'll only ever be used by a small niche group. I still have some hope but it's quickly draining.

We are absolutely not over forums especially for niche communities. They're the best source of information on many topics

If the instances are federated with each other you don't need to do that. You can access other instance's content even while logged into your own.

there are a lot more than 8800 subreddits though, where is this number from?
