#22If you are looking for an alternative that’s even more async than Threads, check out https://twist.com/ We (Doist) have been developing it since 2015.
I love twist.
It’s so underrated. More should check it out.

#24Well, Meta paid 10m for fb.com (and had to promise not to ever get into farming), so I guess threads.com is probably worth the same ballpark to them. Edit, I'm remembering wrong, it was 8.5m.
That's one way to exit.

#29Anyone have a guess on how much they agreed to sell the domain to Meta for?
