Zuckerberg seems greedy to me. He wants to take it all. He owns Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, now he covets Twitter.

Greedy in business ?

He is capitalizing on Twitter woes and his action should be commended.

Don’t be emotional in your judgement. It’s pure business! You can as well displace him and no one would be emotional about it.

Twitter is drowning and even Elon is aware!

He cannot even sell Twitter at the half the price he bought it. His ego fooled him into an overpriced Twitter, forcing him to do massive layoffs and over monetizing platform which backfired.

That means you don’t like Bezos for dominating retail. It's business, don’t attach emotions. Nokia and blackberry once dominated in the mobile phone industry, and got displaced. Even Apple will leave the stage someday.

Someone else is somewhere thinking of how to knock you off irrespective of what he/she presently has at hand
Re: Threads: Ten Million Join Meta's Twitter Rival, Zuckerberg Says by sehin79(m): 2:37pm On Jul 06, 2023
this mark can copy people... he want monopoly of everything...but i doubt he succeed..
Re: Threads: Ten Million Join Meta's Twitter Rival, Zuckerberg Says by SeriouslySense(m): 2:42pm On Jul 06, 2023
Its up to Elon, to adjust, but i still prefer Elon Twitter, than tyrant and alien Zuckerborg virus.

grin grin grin Can't you see Zuckerborg is like an Alien and Robot. Zuckerborg loves his privacy, and i am sure he discourage his family from using Facebook.

Mark Zuckerberg already dey throw blow before fight grin

Leave am, he doesn't know that if it's not Twitter, it can never be Twitter.

Na that useless linking of posts with Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram rubbish dey make all of them look less interesting altogether.

Just like when iPhone didn't allow Bluetooth and was unique, or when Blackberry had their unique BB PIN peculiar to their gadget.

Once they started allowing others in, they lost their flavor, first Blackberry going into extinction, and prolly soon to follow iPhone, with them beginning to accept Bluetooth connection with phones now.

Never allow people access to your life anyhow, they'll disrespect you till you go into extinction.

Dey play. Dangote owns almost everything in Nigeria, sugar, salt, cement, fertiliser, construction, real estate, etc. Thats how businessmen think. Diversification is the key.
So cement and petroleum products is everything in Nigeria?
Just wow.

Who is not greedy? Few

90% of people here would not wait a sec. to switch position with Zuckerberg?

Why the hypocrisy?
I'm sure he joined them automatically. That's how they manufacture bots to make it seem like they have traffic to deceive the gullible

you think the fact that his businesses re mostly monopolistic are by chance? Abeg no let me laugh…. Just a bit on the side….. BUA was literally chased out of the cement business to pave way for Dangote to become a monopoly. There is a lot more but I don’t think anyone who isn’t in the know of the inner workings is ready for such a conversation because it is a heck of a long one.

it was a technical move.. what Elon is doing is stopping competitors from pulling data from twitter. I'm suspecting, that's what meta hadone with the creation of Thread. And why Twitter has filed a law suit.. plus, Jack attempted and failed, donal teump nd truth social tried and failed..... Its not gonna be dat easy mehn.. Because, who will leave twitter nd start building folloers from scratch... naaaa.

The data part is just the technical aspect and most Twitter users are not concerned about all that, they just want to be able to login at anytime, check as many tweets as possible and while away time... when you take that from them , you're indirectly sending them off to any available competitor. Threads may not eventually be as successful as twitter but just look at those numbers. The more numbers threads gets , the more they'll try to make the app better and icludd more features and that's what social media thrives on - numbers and engagement.

That's quite a lot, and honestly I think it's insane. One has to spend so much time on the app to be able to see so many tweets.

Well, according to Musk, it's only a temporary measure to prevent data scraping by AI bots, so we should expect the limit to be lifted in the coming days.

So Meta no do massive lay off?
Mark is just a copycat

Twitter has no competition. 💯

Twitter favors free speech.
Meta favors censorship.

Twitter is transparent/open-source.
Meta is not.

Twitter respects privacy.
Meta sells your privacy.

Twitter has memes.
Meta is a meme.

By the time is done with him he will regret ever cloning Twitter

Cloning Twitter?

What the Parler and Truth Social do? Duplicate?

Twitter is already drowning. Its revenue it’s dropping due to unregulated monetization.

You don't even need to spend that much time view that much.
Land on the homepage and you're greeted with
2- 3 tweets
Scroll a little to see what your tweeps are tweeting, you're seeing maybe 10 - 20.
From a list of 20 trends, check 7 - 12 trends....you won't really know whats trending because many people will be advertising their products , so you'll have to see maybe 10 -12 tweets
All this in less than 30 mins
Come back like 3 hours later , rinse and repeat .

I would suppose the count should be with tweets you click into and and not necessarily the ones that show up on the news feed. I could be wrong though. I don't use the app that much so can't really tell. So far I haven't gotten notified that I ever exceeded the daily threshold.

10 million, doesn't mean new 10 million ppl moved from twitter to Thread. It's most likely facebooks customar base that saw the add, and clicked download..
