I started to write the code to hook up my linkblogger to Threads, but it led me to the website with all my broken Facebook apps, the ones that stopped working when they shut down the API after the 2016 election.
A reminder that this is still Facebook. And while I don't blame them for shutting down the APIs, the whole experience left a really bad feeling.
So I backed out of the project to give it some more thought. Do I really want to go down this road?
