I think its a hype for some time but they definitely have some cool stuff like Dark is lit 🔥🔥

I just found out that I can't download it in Europe. As always, thanks, Mark 😆

I believe that because of Meta copying and integrating features from their competitors (Snapchat, Twitter and others) they will create a monopoly on social media. Instagram added stories a feature on snapchat that is really popular. Slowly they will make a platform which has everything a user needs. Also they will try to buy everything just like Whatsapp.

Sounds like a rehash. It might go well for some time due to the hype. But it'd be hard to experience steep growth beyond a time without any innovation that attracts people.

A platform where my friends on Instagram are seeing me talk about work.

If it enables me to download streaming video, it would be better than Twitter!!🤡

I don't believe in Mark's projects for a long time — just hype.

Defenetly will try, on begening that can be good aquasition channel something like ClubHouse few years past, but I do not think so that Threads will have place between other socials.

Just more one, just a Hype with a clean UX :)

I think anything new that evokes an experience in people's minds can become popular on social media and become hot topics on social media.👌 Here's my Threads Profile https://www.threads.net/@aida.ha...

My handle is @notnminh Through my observation Threads feels like a social media getaway atm since it’s new. It’s gonna be the extension of yourself ( if you’re really happy with yourself) or a newer or bolder version of you, like a booster from something new. Similar to Threads, We made a new AI framework to improve output on these AI chatbots train on your documents, websites, etc. Would be great if you could check us out. Any feedback is awesome: https://www.producthunt.com/prod...

@notnminh @notnminh187 I think it will be a formidable competitor to Twitter, but that is good, we need competition - for them - to have more innovation. Also, who knows, maybe the two apps will cater to two groups of people, like how Reddit and Tumblr had their own identities.
New platforms like Threads add to the digital landscape's vibrancy. In the same vein, we've launched Lingoedit, a tool that brings AI to language editing and translation. Feel free to explore...

A poor ripoff that'll suck your privacy, like any Meta product!

Is it also going to sell blue ticks in the future? 😅

It's good. Instagram has youth audience and people are already connected with people they know. On twitter, people get connected with public and it takes time. Instagram is onboarding audience along with their followers, it looks like Threads will takeover to Twitter for many audience.

something funny to think about, threads is basically adding "text" posting to instagram. they've essentially just added a light version of facebook to instagram. twitter just keeps getting better.
