365 will always be my primary site for sharing my photos . It is a lovely friendly community , I've made some fantastic
" virtual friends".
I do have a Instagram account to reach a different audience , but it is a difficult platform to post " proper photos" due to its square format .
Today Instagram launched " threads " a portal for text and narratives , but it does seem to allow you to post photos in the dimensions you want rather than being restricted to squares .
Anybody tried " threads " yet . I clicked a button on Instagram and I was in " threads" .
This isn't a plug for " threads " just a question if anyone has created an account and if so what's there first impressions
I heard from my friends “threads”is the meta ( FB) versions of Twitter.. I think you have to download the App first.. I haven’t tried it tho’.. I just wanna post my pics on my IG, not really interested in chatting 🥰
A couple friends have joined. I personally don't want any more social media. Left Facebook, have never done twitter or tiktok. I do photos so I too do the border on instagram if necessary to the photo. Just rather be doing something else.
Be aware, if you join Threads and later decide to delete your Threads account you will need to delete your Instagram account. You can delete individual posts, or temporarily deactivate your Threads account, but it is tied to your Instagram so deleting your Threads profile and data deletes your Instagram too.
As for photo size and quality, have you tried Vero? I know it doesn't get the traffic like Instagram, but the photo quality and size is beautiful, the feed is photographers you actually follow, and there are no ads.
As far as Threads, I’m interested to hear people’s thoughts
I am very wary of all in this stable and for an explanation it's worth reading 'Stolen Focus' by Johann Hari.
