I'm confused. Where's the postmortem on how Threads failed? Why is this talk structured like a victory lap?
In a time when users wanted to flee Twitter desperately, they could have launched a clone and likely won. Instead, they "kept it simple". They lacked even the most basic features, to the point where you signed up for Threads and found nothing at all which turned users away.
This is a talk about how to launch a successful app!? That seems totally disconnected from reality. No one should be learning any positive lessons from this.
