I think it's still not available in the EU. Not that I'd download it if it were available.

Honestly forgot it was a thing. I figured that it had disappeared by now.

[–] altima_neo@lemmy.zip 41 points 11 months ago

Haven't thought about threads for weeks... Forgot it was a thing.

Sad that the UFC fight between him and Elon Musk won't happen.

He does have a lot of experience in BJJ, so good for Elon, hahahahah

[–] killeronthecorner@lemmy.world 25 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yeah but Elon had a secret plan. Once he got in the ring he was going to purchase it, then fire everyone inside it.

[–] jimmydoreisalefty@lemmus.org 9 points 11 months ago

Would not doubt that from happening, hahahaha

For real tho. What is Threads?

[–] NickwithaC@lemmy.world 16 points 11 months ago (1 children)
[–] Elivey@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

Sounds like a bad time.

[–] windtorn@beehaw.org 11 points 11 months ago (2 children)

The company formerly known as Facebook launched a Twitter competitor called Threads a couple months ago

[–] andthenthreemore@startrek.website 7 points 11 months ago

Launched an X formerly known as Twitter replacement

[–] jaschen@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago

Thanks!! I didn't want to search for it to give them any link juice.

Is this a real image or ai generated?

[–] unconsciousvoidling@lemmy.world 53 points 11 months ago

Zuckerberg was artificially created so it hardly matters.

[–] Jonas_Jones@lemmy.world 13 points 11 months ago

me who is constantly prompted to download it and even if I wanted couldn't, since I live in Europe ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 13 points 11 months ago (2 children)

How bad must his long hair be that he chooses that hairstyle?

[–] Prunebutt@feddit.de 17 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I've read that this nerd is very into ancient rome.

[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 10 points 11 months ago

Oh really? That's a creepy trail I'm disinclined to look into.

Can't stop myself. Of course he idolizes Caesar, the ultimate end justifies the means character.

Not the same path you're taking, mark.

It's like Ben Shapiro watching a Chomsky lecture and thinking "this guy talks words. I talk words too! We're basically the same."

Oh is his tiny haircut an attempt to make his tiny head look bigger?

New layers.

It's a really good film from 1984 about nuclear war

[–] Aggravationstation@feddit.uk 9 points 11 months ago

Don't forget kids, every time a Lemmy instance federates with Threads it makes Mr Zuckerburg cum.

[–] UserNotFound@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

Threads is still banned in EU, right? Not that I'm interested in it.

[–] junfel@campfyre.nickwebster.dev 4 points 11 months ago

He is an AI.

[–] bighatchester@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Just looked to see what was happening with threads and they like 80% of its users .

[–] Astroturfed@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

They clearly came to market too early. Trying to time the death of twitter. The 5-10 minutes I spent on that shit was enough to see how broken it was and how many features were missing. You can't come to market with a broken product in a space that requires exponential growth and the network effect to achieve success.

[–] seitanic@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Zuckerberg had the same problem with his metaverse idea.

Although, to be fair, I don't know if there really is a way to make that idea successful. Like flying cars, 3D interfaces are cool in sci-fi but impractical in real life

[–] tdawg@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

I think VR will eventually find a home in games and video conferencing. BUT it will have to be ridiculously good before people are willing to put on a helmet for it

[–] son_named_bort@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

No I did not, Mark.

[–] Wage_slave@lemmy.ml 2 points 11 months ago (2 children)

So far it I've been digging it. There's a pretty steady pilgrimage from X to threads. Loads of people try to keep it from turning into "X" and that always shows up in the feed. So it is pretty reassuring like that. And reminders to start blocking or muting people now to keep a positive vibe going and your own sanity. It's been kinda nice like that.

And I've only managed to piss off one person and that was by total mistake. We cool now.

Gee. I had no fucking idea. I men, zicks face is all over it.

The world and its inhabitants are just a little better off with your capabilities as an internet sleuth providing the true I formation that we all need. A king of information among morons and fools across the tube and scapes of nets that make the www. realm absolutely incomprehensible.

Is there anything else that our lord, bezos, wishes to pass along to us, his one and most intelligent son (that's you special buttercup) that might not have been noted for the survival of our species?

I typed that SUPER SLOW for you in hopes that the lack of a drool covered crayon is not an option for communication on this platform.

Have a great day, munchkin.

I still hope for federation of Threads. I just wanna be on my own non-Facebook server, but be able to communicate with that domain. Like with email.
