For a simple Twitter clone it has way to much hype. It tastes a lot like Google+ (RIP)
-
Well, let’s be real: it’s caught on way better than Google+ and is already pretty mainstream with lots of people flocking over in need for a Twitter replacement. Google+ entered into a space that was saturated by Facebook with very little extra value (or none at all) when switching.
-
Google+ also infected other Google products and basically forced itself onto folks who didn’t even want it, making it tainted from the start. It’s not like Threads is being forced onto WhatsApp users or anything. The only thing that’s possibly going to be an issue is once they start adding advertising, but I doubt that’ll matter much.

The most and perhaps only important thing is it is not helmed by Elon Musk. I’ll keep using it as long as that’s the case.

I mean, Zuckerberg is neither any more egalitarian nor any more respectful of your privacy. Seems like a lateral move if that's your thing.
-
I definitely wouldn't call the Zucc a better person than Elon Musk, but at least he's not as unpredictable.

This is the biggest value proposition for it at the moment

Yeah but if google+ happened now it's so better.
Twitter is on its knees and the Google userbase is more cohesive than ever.
