Thats cool, how many of them are human?

I’d be willing to bet that, as a % of active users, there’s more humans on Threads than Twitter

I trust Meta’s moderation more than Twitter. Elon opened the floodgates

Probably most, but the issue is that most are phantom accounts. See, if you don't have a Threads account and someone there searches for you, a phantom account is created, where you'll receive notifications trying to persuade you to "create" tour Threads account. These accounts inflate the numbers, and its why Threads had such a ridiculously fast ""adoption"" rate

That cool how much CO2 did it take to get there?

Ok, but what about daily or monthly active users?

I have an account, but I peaced out after my first experience was mostly Wendy’s ads.

Also can we count the bots separately by country of origin? 🤣
