When I join threadiverse (summer 2023), soon everyone was talking about Threads and how it was about to destroy the whole thing.

Then nothing came of it and the whole convo kinda vanished.

Why didn’t threads destroy threadiverse already?

    They didn’t “chicken out”, necessarily. It turns out that making huge social networks, and particularly for-profit ones, is not trivial. They connected a few accounts this week… but they also launched in the European Union this week, they weren’t even out worldwide until now.

    But hey, don’t you worry, everybody is freaking out again. And if BlueSky ever finishes their own proprietary interoperability protocol and that is made AP-compatible on this end I’m sure we’ll have another hipster breakdown.
