That sounds like a showstopper to me?
For me the threads.net website is still just a QR code that says "get the app". I don't want to use the mobile app, though, I just want to sign up in a desktop web browser. I'm getting the impression that even now, the site is still just a supplement rather than a replacement for the mobile app.
I understand that, but everything about the Threads release seems rushed. I guess it's to try to take advantage of the current problems with Twitter, but such an approach could backfire, and we're already seeing usage of Threads drop precipitously. As they say, "You only have one chance to make a first impression."
