@elevatedMn Same.

I’m not worried that Threads will kill Twitter. Twitter is doing a great job killing Twitter and will eventually succeed. I’m worried that Threads will kill any chance that the next Twitter will exist.

@lithohedron Yep. Software engineering SAFELY, when your code will have lives on the line, is indeed difficult.

[The Power of And @cjsmithvet]

@JulieMontoya20 Maybe, but it’s not only justified, it might be an imperative.

@OhNoSheTwitnt Looks like there’s hope for the little folk like me some day - you’re the second person I’ve seen in 24h who has invites to offer.

@mshavisham All the rest of humanity, if they just weld it shut.
