Threads, an Instagram App

I want to see a social media site poach key users onto their platforms. NBA Twitter (over a million people easily) would switch overnight if Shams Charania and Adrian Wojnarowski suddenly switched platforms.

I think with the right UI/UX, Threads could do it. But we'll see.

Yeah you are correct. There are a few different twitters besides the journalists. And others may be more poachable and also maybe even more valuable.

Did that happen with substack notes?

I don’t know anyone who left Twitter for substack
