> overtaking Threads

So the lowest bar possibly imaginable?

I've fallen for the Threads-links shown in Instagram. Obviously the instagram connection is what gave them a great start at a user-base. But, everytime I try to use Threads, something seems off (mainly see lame, boring, engagement-bait). Bluesky seems different and better. Also a much better story in-terms of open data, open protocol, etc.

I don't think it's that low of a bar. Threads benefited from easy account creation and promotion from Instagram (2b MAU?)

Bluesky started from word of mouth invite only

I can think of a "Truthier" "social network/platform" that is lower than Threads...

Really ? Right in front of my lemmy username ?

I downloaded threads when it came out, but I only used it once.
