Threads, Meta’s app, rival of Elon Musk and Twitter, was launched as of July 6 (that is, today). The platform started to be actively downloaded at night and met with users. So what exactly did users encounter in the first place? Are things going well for Zuckerberg? Here is Threads for you and what happened in the first hours of its launch…
Threads surpassed 2 million downloads in 2 hours! 10 million now!
We have experienced such social media migrations in ancient times as well. We have readers who remember, there was a huge migration from MSN Messenger platform to Facebook for a while, and MSN Messenger entered a period of bankruptcy in the following processes. It is not known for now whether the same thing will happen to Twitter, but we are still experiencing the phenomenon called social media migration today.
Since the social media platforms entered our lives, it was not difficult to understand that the issue was trends and popularity. From MSN to Facebook, from Facebook to Instagram, now the migration from Twitter to Threads has started. However, as we said, Threads may be on a whim for users. We will see this in full in the coming days.
However, when we look at the initial download numbers and user reactions of Threads, we see that people are excited. This is probably one of the reasons for the ridiculous problems users have had on Twitter in the last 3 months. Tweet limitation, Twitter Blue privileges where full justice is not served, site crash due to non-payment of Google Cloud payments etc. Then, as a result, a mass emerged that wanted to escape from Twitter as soon as possible.
If we look at the download numbers of Threads, we see that 2 million downloads were made in 2 hours and new users were registered. This number is really impressive and in the ongoing process, almost new users per hour have signed up to the platform. Another data from Zuckerberg is that 10 million users are currently registered. Another thing that speeds up the process here is that it is directly connected to Instagram.
In this way, you can quickly follow your friends and edit your profile. In addition, on your discover screen, you quickly start to see content according to your interests on Instagram. This allows you to adapt to the application immediately and stay active in the application. So what do you think? Do you think Elon Musk should brood over?
