Jack Dorsey is not why people wanted to leave Twitter though.
Big brands might like Threads but I doubt it will go as well for smaller creators.

What makes you say that about Threads?
Because at best Instagram is very fussy about keeping a brand-safe platform and an algorithm-driven feed that is not the sort of thing who favors smaller creators. Threads is an off-shoot of Instagram, likely it will be treated the same way.
When Twitter was at its best, people liked it for how it allowed them to keep up with current events, and to spread interesting content through viral sharing, as users with similar interests spread it among each other. I don't think Facebook will allow it to be user-driven enough for it to have this sort of organic virality.
Isn't Instagram often used by small creators (like insta models) and small shops and cafes often post there.
I was mostly thinking of artists and game developers. But overall I don't think the platform really helps them promote themselves beyond what they do on their own.
Jack Dorsey is simping for RFK Jr, fuck both of them.
What you should worry about is Zuck interest in the fediverse. It might boost the fediverse but he might somehow take over and become chancellor Sutler.
He wants to outdo the rest of the fediverse in features and users and then centralize bluesky and/or defederate from mastodon and others so that they can essentially attempt to kill off the fediverse.
Bluesky isn't twitter federated. Bluesky is the death of federation.
camouflage rule
This meme kinda slaps
so i know it's a meme zuck looks like an alien but dorsey truly looks like he wants to bathe in my blood, unhinged stare x 100
I don't even know what those two bottom ones are.
