I was 'kicking the tires" signing up for Threads and the VERY FIRST thing I noticed is that people I don't follow are showing up in my feed!

After so much time in the fediverse, this just feels like a violation. NOPE NOPE NOPE

@scottjenson

they're dealing with an issue a lot of new users have, the place seems empty when they first sign up, and don't come back.

@davew Yeah, I get it, it's the classic problem all social sites have. I don't hold that against them, it's the fact that I cant see only my followers that I have an issue with. Apparently the native app allows this (just not the web version)

@scottjenson

i didn't know that you couldn't see only people you follow. that's not good.

@scottjenson It's easy enough to switch to "following." I'm finding Threads to be my second place after Mastodon. Bluesky has largely faded away for me.

@peterme @scottjenson “Easy enough,” if you know the right incantation to reveal it. 😉

Tap the Threads logo (@-symbol) above the feed, and it should show you the “For You” and “Following” tabs. Then, tap on the Following tab.

@scottjenson @peterme I’ve never used it on desktop, but that’s funny.
