It’s such brazen click grubbing, though. They’ll show most of the post except for the last few words, so you click through to see what it says. I guess it helps some PM at Meta meet their KPIs, but those clicks are not real threads users. They’re not going to open the app otherwise.

I wouldn’t have opened the app, but I find I stay browsing around even after I view the post. Threads really does seem to be alive in the same way twitter was. I haven’t yet naturally opened threads yet, but I’ll probably hit that point soon.
