Yea I tried threads recently myself & had the exact same problems. I followed like a total of 3 people, yet my feed was filled with utter crap that I wasn’t the slightest bit interested in…
I’ve been on it for about a month. All the people I followed on Instagram (that have downloaded threads) automatically were added to my follows. Lots of Sci Fi and movie discussion
Politics, too.
My experience has actually been pretty good. It’s like Twitter but with a lot more leftists stuff
