Our once beloved bird app, Twitter, has been through quite a bit of turmoil as of late. Since ownership transferred into the hands of tech mogul and eccentric billionaire Elon Musk, we’ve seen the introduction of a paid subscription service, tweet viewing limits, janky image cropping and the complete and total image destruction of the historically coveted blue tick.
In its demise, challengers have inevitably presented themselves, looking to gobble up Twitter’s increasingly cranky user base. There was a brief period where we all thought we were moving to Mastodon, then Bluesky, then there was the uncharacteristically warm embrace of BeReal, and now, there is Threads.
