I’m having trouble with the difference between threads and microblogs/posts. I keep thinking in terms of Reddit. I know magazines would be what ‘subreddits’ are. Are threads what we see on the front page of a subreddit and but then what are posts? I read the FAQs but still confused.

Anyone able to shed some light? TY!

From what I understand, threads are similar to Reddit threads, whereas the microblog is for individual posts that others can respond to. If threads are the macro way people can interact on kbin, then the microblog is, well, micro.
