Mastodon is interoperable, decentralized, operated by a nonprofit, lively, and, ACTUALLY, isn't hard to use. So why is everyone championing Threads as the main Twitter alternative?
I am bothered by ads that are targeted but still advertise meat to me (I don't eat the stuff). I am bothered by ads that prevent me from reading the content on the page.
If they want to send a product to an influencer who actually uses the product and they post a well written out review to be crossposted on relevant communities. I'm all for that.
