Threads has “the potential to be a real threat to Twitter.' Can Meta take advantage of Twitter's disfunction? Tech experts weigh in.
It remains unclear if Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg will actually face off in a cage fight, but another kind of brawl is taking shape between the two tech titans.
Under Musk, Twitter has become notorious for allowing hate speech and disinformation and for embracing controversial monetization tactics. Just last week, Musk announced that Twitter was imposing limits on the number of posts users could see. But despite Twitter’s mounting problems under Musk, the social media platform still has a sizable user base, she said.
Other recent challengers, such as Mastodon, Post Social and Bluesky, founded by Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey, have yet to post any significant gains against the social network. While Twitter is falling apart under Musk, Siegel said it’s unclear if a challenger can easily take its place.
