It's like when a small town gets a new restaurant. Everyone in the town is excited and they all decide to try it out. Once they are there though they find out the food is ass and the owner is a narcissist douche canoe.

I wouldn't dismiss it just yet. They have a pretty large userbase on Instagram, FB and WhatsApp. Once Thread is feature complete, they can start promoting it agressively and drive up engagement.
