Meta launches rival to Twitter: Last Minute Milliyet
Meta Launches New Application “Threads” to Rival Twitter
In a clash between two US-based social media platforms, Meta company, the owner of Facebook and Instagram, has announced its new application called “Threads”. This move comes after Twitter imposed a posting limit on its users. The application is now available for pre-order on the iPhone and Android operating system phones. Threads, set to launch tomorrow, has been described as Instagram’s “text-based chat application”.
The app’s screenshots reveal a Twitter-like interface, while Meta highlights that Threads is a platform where communities can come together to discuss various topics. The company states, “Whatever your interests are, you can follow and connect directly with your favorite creators and others who love the same things, and build loyal followers to share your ideas, insights, and creativity with the world.”
This launch brings Meta head-on with Twitter, posing a significant competition. It comes at a time when Twitter, under the ownership of Elon Musk, implemented restructuring measures and switched to a subscription system, creating uncertainty for the social media giant.
Amidst this rivalry, Meta owner Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk himself have made headlines with their desire to engage in a cage fight. The two billionaires challenged each other through their social media accounts, with rumors suggesting that the fight might take place in the historic Colosseum in Rome.
In other news related to Elon Musk, he recently blamed artificial intelligence companies for certain issues. Additionally, the reason behind his decision to change his approach towards Twitter was revealed as a means to spend more time with his family.
Meta’s Threads introduces a new player in the social media arena, with users eagerly awaiting the launch tomorrow. It remains to be seen how this competition between Meta and Twitter will unfold and which platform will emerge as the preferred choice for users.
