Reply to: Anyone moving to Threads?

[vetran]

must admit I prefer linked in despite some people turning it into baby and disease facebook there are a few decent commentators.

[saptastic]

1. Thats all the world needs another social media

2. Threads data policy is great - so yeah give zukerberg more data

"Threads potentially collects a wide assortment of personal data that remains connected to you, based on the information available in Apple’s App Store, from your purchase history and physical address to your browsing history and health information. “Sensitive information” is also listed as a type of data collected by the Threads app. Some information this could include is your race, sexual orientation, pregnancy status, and religion as well as your biometric data"

3. I will stick to the threads on CUK

[woohoo]

I don't know the UI is worse, I meant the platform generally. THat's a good tip to default to Following but it used to me, my feed would show me genuinely interesting profiles linked to others I had seen - turning this off means I will never discover new things.

I tend to find people that are interesting either from retweets of people I follow, replies to tweets or comments made by people I follow. Perhaps that's why I havent noticed the decline in the platform.

Selecting Following just gives you tweets for people that you follow. Largly filters out the extreme tweets that seem to thrive on being extreme.

I only read twitter so I don't use it for posting content but I've not noticed the UI become worse. I've read this a few times but what have you found worse?

I've never been active on Twitter but did used to read it... these days it's just a cesspit of hateful right-wingers and virtue-signalling lefties (more so than usual) to the point I cannot find anything to read. Not to mention Elon's attempts to make it worse for users in pretty much any way.

The data capture of Threads is concerning but as I already have a FB (and Insta, also largely unused) account the reality is they probably have it all already. They're certainly chosen a good time to launch due to the recent Twitter fiascos.

Think I might be a bit 'wrong in the head' but every time I hear about this new fangled app I think of.....

[ladymuck]

Resolver is trying to help, although I've never managed to successfully lodge an issue with them.

All I want to do is just bitch at companies and raise awareness of their shoddy customer service.

[woohoo]

NagLikeaWife.com is available

Could have a logo with an outline of a women from the 50's wagging her finger. It's on

[woohoo]

Problem with apps like that is because they can't get any money from advertising, they go along the subscription model and people stop using them.

Ideally you want to do something like this - https://www.resolver.co.uk/ and get organisations like MSE to promote it so your name is everywhere.

Once it takes off I would just sell the complainer information. Or even have a review site for companies based on complaints.

Interesting, thanks for the link, never seen resolver.co.uk before.

This could be another plan b, an app that will allow you to select a company and automatically nag them across the different social networks.

just need a name and logo and im away.

For those who have asked about the Edwina Currie reference allow me to elaboate.
I am not the only one to have said the same thing to Edwina and been blocked by her on Twitter is:

CUK drum roll please.

"The only intelligent thing to ever come out of your mouth is John Major's cock"

made I laugh
