Threads is for the tamed, docile and obedient crowd who can't tolerate dissent and don't want their feelings hurt online. They are intolerant to opposing views.

Twitter is now for smart people and Threads is for fashion and beautiful people, brands and influencers, the last but not least they collect more people data.

I'm signing up after dumping Twitter 6 months ago. 🎉

More lefty lunacy at work. This will not even hurt twitter.

Fun fact: We have had at least 1 Tesla Fire a month, for the last 24 months, most of which have resulted in deaths.

This is not competitor. It is copycat. Mark has lost innovation.

They should have called it FADH - flogging a dead horse

Please make a Web Version OR Desktop version.

Threads is basically Twitter with less fun and more censorship. It's basically gay Twitter, where everyone's pretending to be happy and nice. It's doing well with Elon haters and some IG users. But I doubt that the growth rate will continue.

[FrancoisSibanda]

Well I'll give feedback when I try the Application

[pampermenetwork]

It already is. 73 million users in a couple of days. I would call that a real threat.

Don't go complaining when your personal data gets sold to MNC

[pierrejean]

I don't care. Whether you say Twitter or Threads. I don't give a damn

[adrianaadnan]

The thing is mark will not hesitate to use ai and tons of bots to ramp up threads. And ramp up ads puts mark in a higher advertising advantage than elon.

Pepe 2.0 is the worlds most bullish Crypto right now

[blackmesacake]

It certainly is on the right track to take Twitter down

[lindaveatch]

NO BECAUSE HE HAS NO DOESN'T WANT THE TRUTH TOLD, ALREADY CENSORING GENDER OPPOSITION. HE IS AFTER YOUR MONEY AND YOUR TRUTH. HE WANTS TO TELL YOU WHAT YOUR TRUTH IS!!! Not me, he won't.

People are feed-up with Elon Musk's disastrous management of Twitter.
