People don’t care about principles when it comes to a social media site (or really anything for that matter). They want something easy to use, that everyone is on.
I’m almost certain there’s a first to market FOMO kinda thing happening with influencers/scammers/advertisers. Everyone with that disgusting “grindset” mentality on Instagram just got a blank slate on an entirely new platform with a lot of media attention.
Its happening with every new Twitter replacement. Twitter for all its faults was actually a widely used resource for brands, companies and influencers. Now that it is so erratic they’re all trying to jump on anything with a hint of success to replace Twitter.
Brands and government accounts are going to flock to Threads. They want a place for general announcements that has some consistency in moderation and stability. Musk has largely destroyed that on twitter.
I care about following cool people and browsing porn, and I don’t think Instagram is gonna let the latter fly.
