My initial impression of Threads was that I prefer the UI and it has some nice design touches, but most people I want to follow aren't on it yet and my homepage is just a stream of garbage from so many people I don't follow and don't have interest in.
Instagram culture is very different from Twitter, which is fine if what you want is people promoting their personal lifestyle brands, thirst traps, and art. It's not good if you're interested in news, academics, institutional topics etc. Threads seems full of people coming from Instagram and much less from Twitter, so the content all feels more like Instagram culture and it keeps pushing that at me, but that kind of content is also the reason I never use Instagram. It's very annoying.
Also, it's so inconvenient to manage more than one account.
