    I always got the impression it was more geared towards pushing brands and celebrities in front of you rather than being an engaging social media platform.

    All users were forced users. Meaning, everyone who had Instagram also had a threads account. No wonder everyone leaves.

      I feel like that was by design, make your numbers look better than they actually are. The thing that zuck the cuck seems to always forget is that Facebook grew organically by word of mouth, not forced through tricks and metrics. That’s the main advantage of lemmy and kbin right now, their growth is by sheer word of mouth, completely organic.
