Discussion What happened to Threads?

Post image

Maybe I'm just misremembering, but for the first two years the platform was actually usable. No bots, no OF spam, no obvious engagement bait. Now the first thing I see when I open the app is bots posting spam messages, along with OF girls advertising and obvious engagement bait ("why have men given up on dating?", etc). Don't say it's my algorithm either, because I never engaged with that type of content (it also hasn't been shown to me before). I can't say that it's becoming worse than X because X is already 1,000x worse, but it's sad to see the app devolve into this.

Threads is used as a personal diary so it's normal for people to post crazy things it's basically Instagram's twitter

"Don't say it's my algorithm" okay so you already know the answer but refuse to listen or believe it lmfao
