#5The amount of (very impressive) human labor that went into building something that was dead on delivery. Kudos to them for being able to incentivize engineers to pull through this.

Well, they need to fix the back button. When you press back, the original feed is shown and then it promptly updates.
Twitter never caught in a lot of places while threads might have a chance.

Tell me you didn’t read the article without telling me.
They used a small team to build an app in 5 months that handled going from 0 to 100 mil users in 5 days.
Doesn’t sound neither lots of money and engineering, or false idea if it had 100 mil signups in 5 days.

Dead on delivery? That’s pretty dramatic (and incorrect). 100M users in 5 days and it’s quite active today - very far from dead on delivery.
