Threads, an Instagram app 12+

Threads… the app that finally lets you scroll in peace without worrying about some random nudity or disturbing content popping up and making your grandma gasp in horror. It’s like the internet finally decided to behave itself. Picture this: you’re sitting with your family, casually scrolling through your phone. On Twitter, this would be a high-stakes game of “Will I Get Disowned Today?” But on Threads? It’s smooth sailing. You can enjoy memes, laugh at wholesome content, and not once worry about explaining to Aunt Karen why a shirtless bodybuilder is flexing on your screen. And the best part? No Elon Musk. Seriously, it’s like a breath of fresh air. You don’t have to wade through his latest cryptic tweets or his attempts at humor that make you cringe harder than a dad joke at a family reunion. On Threads, it’s just you and good vibes.
It’s like Threads took a look at the chaos of Twitter and said, “Hold my algorithm.” Now, instead of doomscrolling through a minefield of madness, you get a safe, happy place where memes reign supreme, and you can actually relax. So, if you’re tired of dodging questionable content and billionaire rants, hop on over to Threads. It’s the cozy corner of the internet we all deserve. Trust me, your sanity will thank you!

Well I just downloaded this app and it’s a lot different than being just on Insta. Here is what I have noticed so far . Instead of tapping on the post to like it you have to tap the heart instead of double tapping the pic itself to like it which is fine ..no complaints. And to reply or post a comment on a picture or video then tap the post and post your comment. I also noticed that one post so far had a swear word but wasn’t a bit offended at all …Freedom Of Speech and Expression. So I do hope this continues as so many of our rights are being taken away by people that are trying to rewrite our American Constitution. All in all all I will say is this….ignore the negative reviews and read the positive ones about this app…if you want your full voice to be heard which is the way it should always be!

Update: The only reason I returned to write a review is because Insta put a useless @ on my profile.

Its like Twitter... only its called Threads. The problem is that I dont see what void its trying to fill, or what problem its trying to solve, other than being another Twitter "killer" that is going to solve all the perceived non existent problems of Twitter (Remember when everyone was all excited over the Facebook Killers known as either Google Plus or Diaspora?). I also don't really see how it heightens or enhances instagram, either. Instagram is for all intents well laid out despite the fact that you cant have a chronological feed that shows you everyone you follow (which it would be nice to scroll through my followers, and not my top interactions + whatever else instagram's algorithm tosses up). Btw, thanks for not allowing me to delete Threads unless I delete my Insta, there is simply no reason for that much tie-in. Regardless now I have a silly @ like symbol on my profile that redirects to a defunct threads link, so good job for useless features. Lastly, in regards to people complaining about toxicity on Twitter as a reason for this app to exist, I would suggest that Twitter is neither toxic or pure, but that most have no clue how go actually use it, as all algorithms are a result of what you, the user, put into it.
