To me, threads is inconsequential. It's just another twitter clone that I, and everyone else, doesn't need to bother with.
The paranoid part of me thinks this article is paid psychological manipulation in favour of threads by overstating the impact of it; but it's probably just a stupid article written by a dissociated journalist that's spent too much time around venture capitalists while also not really understanding the philosophy of FOSS.
The anime series Ghost in the Shell and Cowboy Bepop both fit that description in their own way.
I think you'll also like the anthologies: Neo Tokyo and Memories.
And the movies: Redline, Akira, Metropolis and the original Ghost in the Shell.
I also need to mention Nausicca of the Valley of the Wind, Laputa: Castle in the Sky and Summer Wars. These ones aren't exactly Cyberpunk but I would say they scratch the same itch; only in a different way.
*I also suggest you read the manga BLAME!, it's about as cyberpunk as you can get. Just be sure to read happy, regular things at the same time so you don't get depressed.
Took a few months off this year for the first time since 2013 or so. Much needed... though I can't afford to go anywhere. Just stayed home and relaxed.
