I’m terribly sorry to say this but it blows huge donkey #### and is a waste of everyone’s time.
It's day 1, so I'm not expecting perfection. It's impressive a big company can do something like this in 5 months.

Also, for me the future comes down to if there's a way to get a users twitter posts onto Threads.

If there is a tool that will take twitter posts and transpose to threads, than that is the end for Twitter (IMO), as Twitter is having increasing tech issues which makes using it kind of suck.

If guys like Friedman or other insiders can automate getting their posts from Twitter to Threads, they will do that and threads will flourish. If they can't, Threads will have a big road.
