So in an article about 'breaking up with X', the FT's Katie Martin chooses Threads because she says she's lazy & easy to use.... unlike mastodon which is 'clunky'....

I'm not sure why she would find it clunky, but once again the mainstream media would rather go with (just) another Big Tech offering rather than actually explore a real alternative....

It really is like Pete Townsend says in Won't Get Fooled Again.

'Meet the new boss, same as the old boss'!
