    What would Threads be in this analogy, maybe Edge browser?

    Always being shoved in your face, an artificially high “user count”, but after a while people don’t really use it?

      Threads has much much much more active content than Lemmy.

      Edge is also a fantastic browser and has tons of actual users. Most folks I know use it more than chrome these days.

        Edge is based on chrome so you can throw this out

          Oh wow it’s it? 🙄

          Gotta love when some redditor/lemmy explains irrelevant common knowledge.

            Are you arguing with me or you at this point?

            Explain to me in detail how that is irrelevant without telling me it has everything to do with what you and I just said.

            Y’all need to go back to Reddit with this shitty argue with everyone attitude, this was a beautiful place at one point.

        Might depend on where you are in the world, it’s not really the case where I am

        Twitter, Bluesky, and Mastodon are most common for that format, and Chrome/Safari for browsers. I see more Firefox than Edge, with the exception being locked down work computers

        I decided to try out Edge when I started my current job and was genuinely impressed and stuck with it. We use Microsoft products heavily so I figured it would only be appropriate to use a Microsoft browser to access them. The built in vertical tab support, multiple profiles, etc. it really does a dang good job which is a pleasant surprise
