Most of the article makes no sense, but Threads won't really be usable as "a Twitter" until there's a feed of people you follow.

or the ability to discover content rather than people

that's an interesting distinction, can you elaborate, I'd like to hear more about this.

Currently, the search function only searches for users and not posts. There are no hashtags, so if I was interested in (for example) Anime art, then I would have no way of finding posts about anime art. I can only find other users who may or may not post anime art, and that search is based a fuzzy search of their name and not their bio

ah yah I heard about that feature anemic MVP rollout. Presumably they'll expand the search mechanism. Seems like a gaping omission for a debut MVP though, wonder what the rush was exactly.

I think they wanted to launch while Twitter was still rate limiting usage

[jxramos]

aha, yah I can see that, a strike while the iron's hot sort of deal.
