- On my Threads profile, I changed my featured link to be my Mastodon profile URL.
- Then, on my Mastodon profile, I changed one of the featured links to be my Threads profile URL.

I am one of those people who migrated, and I don’t want to be part of any other social media plattform that is run by megacorps. (haven’t found a good content rich alternative to youtube though)
I don’t know how futile this battle is, as it’s undeniable that content are still made on platforms hosted my those megacorps. For now I start with privacy friendly frontends. Libreddit for the reddit stuff and piped for youtube.
It kinda sucks that those megacorps lured the people/youth in with a prospect of fame and money to produce content for them. Turning what was once a creative pasttime into a tedious job.
