> threads has been moving at a glacial pace and I'm way out ahead of any thing they've indicated even thinking about
I'm not so certain that's an accurate statement. Threads launched only 5 months ago, and they've made some fairly large progress on things users have requested the most, and there's a number of things that are currently being tested in certain parts of the world (ex: trends).
It'll be interesting to see if they can continue that pace into the new year.
Personally, I just want to see a lists and bookmarks feature, which they've confirmed is in the works.
FWIW, the experience is completely different than it was during the gold rush. Even the algorithmic feed is surprisingly good once you mute a few morons.
> Well Threads currently doesn’t even have a chronological, non-algo feed I can look at, whereas on bluesky you can have any number of feeds with whatever algo/logic you want.
None of that matters if the people you follow are on Threads but aren’t on Bluesky. And if the people you follow can’t get on Bluesky even if they wanted to, then off to Threads they will go and so everybody else will follow.
Hopeful? Didn't the Threads announcement literally state they were going to federate with Mastodon?
> Soon, we are planning to make Threads compatible with ActivityPub, the open social networking protocol established by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), the body responsible for the open standards that power the modern web. This would make Threads interoperable with other apps that also support the ActivityPub protocol, such as Mastodon and WordPress
> We’re committed to giving you more control over your audience on Threads – our plan is to work with ActivityPub to provide you the option to stop using Threads and transfer your content to another service
Fuck your shitty goals.
