The new competitor of Twitter is Threads!
“Threads, developed as a competitor to Twitter, is now available for use. The new application by Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Meta Company, has been launched in over 100 countries. The number of users who have tried it so far has exceeded 100 million.
What is Threads?
According to the statement by Meta Group, “Threads will be a place where communities can discuss topics of interest today and trends of tomorrow. Whatever you’re interested in, you can follow your favorite content creators and connect directly with others who share the same interests, building a loyal following to share your ideas, thoughts, and creativity with the world.”
Zuckerberg’s release of Threads has put him at odds with Elon Musk. Musk commented on Threads, saying, “Competition is good, cheating is not.” Elon Musk’s lawyer, Alex Spiro, sent a “cease and desist” letter to Mark Zuckerberg, threatening to file a lawsuit.
What are the features of Threads?
