    I’m torn on this one. I want users to migrate to FOSS platforms but at the same time Threads is the best near term solution to drain Twitter users. In a perfect world, I would like the skinheads to stay on Twitter, the attention seeking people to go to threads, and the normal folk to hit Lemmy/Kbin.

      Normal folk to hit Lemmy

      The “normal folk” are the lowest common denominators that turn a fun, hobbiest-centric platform into what Reddit and Facebook and Twitter have become.

      Give me the freaks and geeks instead; they’re the cooler, wiser, less hate-filled people.

      At least for me, micro blogging serves very different needs than forums. I don’t see them as so interchangeable that Twitter people flock to kbin/Lemmy.

        Isn’t mastodon the federated microblogging replacement? Lemmy & kbin are the forum/news aggregator replacement instead, correct?

          That’s meant to be the use case, yeah. Threads kind of wanted to be a bit of both, and of course ended up sucking at both…

        Yeah. Google needs to get in there with another product that they will leave in Beta until they cancel it in 18 months.
