    As someone not using Threads this is a big surprise. I mean I’m surprised it didn’t already have ads.

      As another someone who doesn’t use Threads, it is a big surprise to find out there’s a website or something called Threads that looks like it’s related to email and apparently is popular.

        It’s Facebook brand Twitter, and is or was planned to be compatible with Mastodon (Fediverse Twitter)

        “is popular”

        Im pretty sure they auto setup an account on threads for anyone on Instagram to artificially make it popular.
