Super weird seeing this Threads post here on Mastodon and there’s just like… @NYTGuildTech… right there.

(Do not mistake this as a Mastodon fanboy post, to be clear.)

@jgarber (I use Threads)

It's a weird place because the reverse-chron feed aka "Following" keeps kicking you back out to the algorithmic feed. They really don't want you sticking with Following. Furthermore there’s no way to subscribe to hashtags, so you can't really guarantee access to specific topics. At the end of the day, you're basically at the mercy of the algorithm to surface what you're hoping to know about. And sometimes that's stuff that's day(s) old by the time you see it. Ugh!
