So, as PGH LIVE, an entertainment company in Pittsburgh , I finally gave Threads a shot. As an Instagram addict, it was super easy to jump in and start posting. The interface is clean and simple, just like Instagram. It's great for quick thoughts and casual chats. I love how it's easy to connect with people you already follow on Insta. But let's be real, it's still missing some key features. No DMs? Come on! And while the algorithm tries its best, it's a bit hit or miss. There are times when I'm scrolling through endless posts that aren't really my vibe. I'd love to see more options to customize my feed. Overall, Threads has potential. It's a good starting point, but it needs to step up its game to truly compete with the big dogs. If they can add some more features and refine the algorithm, I could see myself spending more time here. #threads #socialmedia #review #firstimpressions

Despite being named threads this app really does just have the worst comment threading/stacking function, making it impossible to follows people’s replies or conversations. It also just seems to be filled with all the people from twitter who post the most click-baity nonsense designed to generate engagement (“what’s your worst airplane story?” “I’m not visiting places where they say they don’t want tourists anymore, what do you think?”. The truly hateful people from twitter/X seem to be gone at least, but what remains are the most annoying people who either (deliberately?) misunderstand everything, comment to just say the person starting the thread are stupid/wrong, or just tell the most boring dad anecdotes about their day but act like it’s some deep philosophical insight. I occasionally cave and download threads so I can read an interesting looking post advertised through instagram but by the time the app downloads instagram will refresh and I can’t see the ad for the post to click on it again anyway. I’ll then briefly scroll on threads, get annoyed by the banal/inane nonsense, leave and uninstall again.

so the more apps that are constantly being added just to message is just getting a little far out. at this point most would not want to keep adding more apps for the features that should just simply be added to the ig. personally i cant even watch a fb post cause people post it from ig, and the video wont play unless u go to another app. i just dont open it cause thats just more work for what already needed to worn on fb. the cideo wont play unless u go to ig. but fb amd ig own each other, so why cant the video just play anyway. more apps is just making ur phone grow weary. the same as X. nothing new. im not sure exactly at all what they are implimenti g by copying another app. snapchat is just as bad. when the features are just like imessage. u send pictures and texts just like snap. im confused as to why someone ises another platforom to message others. ive used more than those features and u just cant really have a need about snap, or threads. these are alike in the area of remade, boring, copycat work.
