This was an entertainingly written piece.

Threads, as an MVP, does not yet have the ability to see only content from those you follow. That hardly means it won't. Already, activity from those you follow shows up first in your feed, so TBH it's a pretty good experience until you run out of followees' content. It's extremely premature to write it off.

Meta isn't exactly a startup. I think it's fair to hold them to a high standard.

One the first day ?

I don’t think that feature is worth delaying the launch

It's not like they built the app in one day.

Anecdotally, many are trying the app, realizing it's half baked (for various reasons), and dropping it right then and there. They only tried it because they were curious and now they know.

You only get one chance to make a first impression.

Meta is a 730 billion dollar company so seems like they should be able to do better.

"Done is better than perfect" is still a good phrase for Meta.

It isn't done, though. That's the problem.
