Will people here use/try Meta's #threads when available? Would love to know the reasons or if it would be just for fun/curiosity.

The amount of data collected is insane imo.

I stay the fuck away from anything Meta/Facebook, so absolutely not.

I wish more people would adopt this approach.

I don't know anything about the number of users they're expecting to have with this, but I'll be very surprised if it's a significant number. I just don't get why anyone would want to join it, not only for what it is, but also for the whole facebook/meta nonsense. But I suppose some folks still actively and frequently use Facebook, so what do I know!
