One way to keep that reputation is to not deploy features that enable more professional use cases. Perhaps they want to be more than a casual app?

I personally like threads, they are a very minor bump in app complexity that can significantly improve context reassembly - the primary issue with chat apps.

They do, hence their recent rebranding that resulted in less of a "for gamers" image :)
