Are you going to try Meta's Threads?
(lemmy.world)
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.
Yes! BUTTTTT I have a master plan!!!
HERE ME OUT!
I'm on Instagram and have a bunch of followers, around 200K.
SO - My plan is to squat as the IG users pick up Threads. Most people will just follow the same people from IG (Meta encourages it and it fills your feed fast).
My follower count on Threads should grow just from that alone, right?
THEN - Facebook finally federates, right?
THEN! Facebook allows for account migration to Mastodon.
First..... I migrate my @renwillis@mstdn.social account to Threads.
Finally.... Immediately migrate all my followers from Threads back to mstdn.social.
Suddenly potentially 200K are following a Mastodon account!!! MWUH-HAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!!!
@ren this would be the ideal, right? ๐ค๐ป
a burner phone? nah. I've been on IG for so long, Meta's knows my shit already so I'm testing the waters with a plan to spread the good word.
Kinda thinking the same route!
@ren hmmmm, perhaps
sometimes I miss giving awards like on Reddit...

not sure I understand. I'm not dependent on them, I want to help show them the Fediverse.
if not, at the very least I can spend some time preaching the good fediverse word!
