It’s mostly better than twitter, in that it actually functions reasonably well, and it’s obviously considerably worse than Mastodon (especially compared to the Ivory app)
The biggest downside is the timeline seems to show a mixture of accounts you follow and other accounts, seemingly suggested accounts that it thinks you might want to follow. I can’t see any way to only see posts from accounts you follow.
The timeline isn’t chronological and I can’t see a way to make it chronological

Another downside is your account is linked with your Instagram account.

Their competition is with Twitter. They are not competing with Mastodon (atleast for now).
True, this is just from my own perspective, and I use Mastodon.
