       Had a thread go completely viral over on Threads, about nespresso and its cost. About 100,000 views since I posted it this AM.A few things I've learned about Threads and when posts go viral there.a) viral ≠ new followers. b) this is when all the cranks come out. People who don't actually read your post, or decide they know a lot more than the fellow who's been studying and writing about coffee for 27 years (okay, that's smug of me), and people who don't like their own safe worldview challenged, or being shown that the product they use and love has costs and repercussions. Natia and I spent a lot of today responding to a lot of those comments. I don't know it if was worth doing so.https://www.threads.net/@coffeegeek/post/DECv8aXpUQO
