The number of users of Threads, the text-based social media application recently launched by Meta, has been announced. According to the social media analytics firm, Threads reached 50 million users and more than 100 million posts in its first 24 hours.
The Threads users number exceeds 50 million
There are several reasons for the success of the application, which has emerged as a rival to Twitter. The first is Twitter’s daily limit on tweets. The ongoing “cage fight” between Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg has also boosted interest in Threads.
Things also escalated when Twitter threatened Meta over Threads. Twitter claimed that Meta was using its trade secrets and intellectual property with Threads. The lawsuit, filed by the company’s lawyer Alex Spiro, alleges that Meta is a “copycat” app in violation of US law.
Twitter has accused Meta of stealing its data to create the Threads app. Meta has denied Twitter's claims. Here's the detail.
It is not possible to say that all users who have tested the platform have given positive feedback. Some users said that the more big brands tried to add humour to their posts, the more boring they became.
It is not surprising that Threads reached 50 million users on its first day. The application, which works with Instagram, allows you to share what you follow directly. This allows Instagram users to meet again through Threads.
In addition, a recent post by Mark Zuckerberg revealed that more than 30 million users have signed up for the new application.
By the way, according to the Threads additional privacy policy, you can freeze your Threads account at any time. However, it turns out that you also have to delete your Instagram account to delete it.
