Meta has been in the tech war in recent days with Twitter with the introduction of its own thread app with the Twitter theme in action.
Twitter’s former CEO Elon Musk has made attempts to take a lawsuit approach against Meta for employing Twitter staff in the development of threads. Threads in question have base features and are yet to introduce more of it to make it easy for Instagram users.
The app has been downloaded hundreds of thousands and counting with over 12.2K Ratings
According to Meta, Threads are where communities come together to discuss everything from the topics you care about today to what’ll be trending tomorrow. Whatever it is you’re interested in, you can follow and connect directly with your favourite creators and others who love the same things — or build a loyal following of your own to share your ideas, opinions and creativity with the world.
