@mikeisaac.bsky.social makes a related point
Screenshot of mike Isaac post on Threads. I think the main issue for Twitter expats moving to Threads is that it’s difficult to find the small communities that made Twitter fun - and Algorithmic platform growth looks very different than how Twitter following grew, iirc (Hence, right now threads being game. OCDE by growth hackers and hustle culture types - feels sort of like early fb and YT)

Text from article: consider the dramatice power shift happening right now in social media. Twitter’s slide into irrelevance and extremism as it decays into X has hastened the explosive growth of a while host of newer social networks. There’s the nerdy fixes of the noncommercial Mastodon community ties (each one with its own set of Dungeons and Dragons rules to play by), the raucous hedonism of Bluesky (like your old atimnlr timeline at its. It’s scandalous), and the at-least-its-not-LinkendIn noisiness of Threads, brought to you by Instagram, meaning Facebook, meaning Meta.
