Twitter threatens legal action over Threads app 😂

Threads: Twitter threatens legal action over Meta's new app

Its owner Elon Musk says "competition is fine, cheating is not" a day after the rival app launched.

More than 55 million people have signed up for the new app, according to Meta. Twitter lost a large proportion of its 7,500 employees, as high as 80%, in waves of redundancies following Mr Musk's takeover last October. Some of them joined Meta to build this new app.

Threads: So, Instagram and Twitter had a wild fling, and behold, this little brat was conceived, complete with influencer nonsense and a truckload of Twitter attitude. Threads really knows how to mimic its parents' vibes, serving up all the generic influencer stuff and that oh-so-impressive "big follower" energy. It's basically Instagram, but with a Twitter-like comments platform, because who doesn't love more ways to share their unfiltered thoughts?

My first honest impression of threads: it sucks. It seems to prompt typical IG stuff from the fashion and travel world. Zero stuff from tech or the IT world. Not a Twitter replacement unless they fine-tune Algo and everyone joining it. We are all stuck here for now 😉 😂

Future versions of Threads will work with the fediverse, a new type of social media network that allows people to follow and interact with each other on different platforms, like Mastodon.
