AaronG85 Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 Just wondering if the social media team have a Threads account where they post updates like they do on Twitter? I know I could use Twitter but can’t stand the app. I’m always on the forums but it seems features and updates get posted there first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MechanicalLens Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 Not to mention that some folks, like myself, choose not to have a Twitter account, and some of their posts are marked as NSFW, meaning I cannot see them unless they get posted here, for instance. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YourMirror Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 Not to mention some folks cant stand the internet. Would be great if they could get a written letter with foto's and updates. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catdaddy Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 I've literally never used Fakebook or Twitster. I think I had a MyFace account somewhere around the turn of the century. Social media is antisocial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamida Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 My social media is just my original hotmail account from about 1998, gmail, the forum here and discord. I also have never bought a cellphone and still have my landline number from the 70's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also have never bought a cellphone and still have my landline number from the 70's. Discord isn't social media, though. It's an organized chat site (organized = designated, isolated communities, versus something like a town square that describes actual social media), much like how YouTube isn't social media, it's a video hosting service. Personally I have a gmail account, Reddit (which I'm considering abandoning entirely), and, again, not social media, YouTube and Discord. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanX Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 Lol @ ppl not using twitter because Elon owns it. Threads is a low usage platform for ppl who want to virtue signal. It's not popular enough to warrant it's inclusion into the real social media ecosystem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I send you a written letter through the post office. The post office to me is social media. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that Musk owns it it´s just a different kind of cancer than before. Same, but different. And on topic: It´s a joke that the devs don´t post things on all their platforms. The Social Media work is bad, so i doubt they will use Threads tbh. And i´d rather have them posting everything important on all their platforms instead of adding a new one.
