Twitter has competition

Postby Streamguy69 » 14 Jul 2023, 23:58

There is a new website out there and or app. It is called Threads. When you look it up, it is called threads an instagram app. I just signed up for it so I don't know much about it. I do know the owner of facebook and instagram is the owner of this app. Also when you sign up for it, it lets you bring your instagram friends with you. They just have to accept you as a friend. I had 6 so far.

I have never tried out reaching that website before. I think would not be interested in this.

@Streamguy69, how did you sign up for it? Did you join directly through your Instagram account?

I thought about joining but haven't just yet. I wish it had a web version. I'm not big on apps such as IG for that reason. So maybe I won't join, after all. Or if I do, the account will be as neglected as my IG account :lol:

From the little update i saw on Twitter, most users on Twitter who are also on threads, have expressed their displeasure about the app. Claiming it is not as fun and interesting as twitter.

Yes I downloaded the app and connected with instagram. Then all of my instagram friends who want to join could join and already have me on their friend list. I have 7 so far

I think I would stick with Twitter and occasionally FB.
I tried Tumblr too in between but looks like I am not comfortable with too many sites usage.

A local TV channel recently reported that Elon Musk has stated that Twitter has lost about 10% of its ad revenue.
In that case, I guess that Threads will cause a significant dent on Twitter.

Musk is to blame for the declining trend of Twitter.

I think the Threads app has posed a stiff competition to Twitter. Threads may however take the lead because twitter had introduced a paid subscription service.

That is what smartness entails in business. Exploiting the weakness of the competition.

Because of EU regulations Threads is not available in European Union. Looks it will not be available until 2024.

Threads keeps on falling off the radar every passing week. It seems it didn't strategize well before launching out.

I learned about this site but I have no plan to register this time. I will check it later if it is beneficial for me.

Despite the competition from Meta, X is still the number one trending social media. The hottest breaking and viral contents are on Twitter.
