I thought Threads wasn't going to be available till at least 12 hours from now?
I’m already in. Here are the good points:
1. I’ve found people I know already since I follow them on Instagram.
2. I get to use my Instagram handle. Don’t have to fight over handles 😛
3. I immediately found somebody that I didn’t follow on Instagram, but was interested in following due to their YouTube videos. So discoverability (on a very quick scan) seems to be good.
4. I like their image gallery — the only app (I know of) which doesn’t ape Twitter and do that weird 1/2/3/4 grid. Threads just gives a scrolling gallery. Much nicer.
Haven’t used it enough to have any other impressions. But I do miss not being able to use it from my desktop since I’m not that heavy a mobile user ….
