Tried out Threads last night. Left with a feeling I can’t quite put my finger on. Twitter usually feels casual and open, but Threads was an endless list of sponsored posts. The constant shilling of new accounts felt awkward and forced. Threads seems like more of an ad platform than social network. Difficult to see real conversations emerging. Came in with an open mind but feels like it prioritizes promotion over connection. What do you think of Threads so far?
Social media and virtual reality are just consensual hallucinations. We collectively agree to perceive these digital worlds as if they are real, when in fact they are mere simulations.
