Panget nung Threads amp
I just read about how you can only make a Threads account if you have Instagram. And you can't delete it. You can only either deactivate your Threads profile or outright delete your Instagram account.
I hate how "threads" will eventually own the word "thread" in any social media/internet forum context.
Kulang na lang, mag-apply si Meta ng trademark sa "thread" na salita
Threads™
My main gripe with the app is how it's hard to read the posts of the accounts you follow. It's one huge pile of comments that I have no idea why it's there. Puros mga Pia Wurtzbach who I don't recall ever following in IG or mentioning. Also, the order is all over the place — most comments are from 12 hours ago, some 20 mins earlier, and so on.
I do like the UX compared to Twitter. The thread-based presentation of replies to "tweets" is much easier to read. You can also attach up to 10 photos and sifting through said photos is a breeze.
Yung feed ko nung una puro mga posts ni Marcelo Santos III, even got a reply from him.
Akala ko nasa early 2010s Twitter ako eh.
I've installed it earlier and pang-mobile lang siya. Yung website nila when visited on the PC, hanggang QR code lang para ma-download ang app sa phone.
