The highly anticipated and potential Twitter-killer has landed and millions have already downloaded it, according to Meta CEO MarkZuckerberg.
Threads, built by the Instagram team, went live on Wednesday evening and in just the first two hours received an impressive 2 million downloads, Zuckerberg said in his fourth post on the new text-based app.
“The vision for Threads is to create an open and friendly public space for conversation,” Zuckerberg said in another of his posts on the new app. “We hope to take what Instagram does best and create a new experience around text, ideas, and discussing what’s on your mind.” It seems like they want to take what Twitter does — or did — best, too.
