Threads is Meta's alternative to Twitter. Here, you can use your Instagram account and keep your username to participate in the community, join all kinds of discussions, create your own posts, and give your opinion on any topic. In posts, you can write text, insert emojis, and add images or videos.
To guarantee your privacy, you can make your profile private. You will also be able to limit the users who can comment on your posts and choose between "Anyone", "People you follow" or "People you have mentioned".
Like on Twitter, you can follow profiles that interest you to see their content in your feed and interact with them. If you follow a person on Instagram, you can also follow that account on Threads. By logging into Threads with your Instagram account, you will be able to see a list of people you already follow who have joined Threads, and you can choose to follow them or not.
Other similarities that Threads shares with Twitter include the ability to "like" and "retweet" content, as well as reply directly to it or share the link via private conversations. You can also create threads and post all your messages at once.
Threads uses ActivityPub, the open-source protocol enabling distributed and decentralized social media implementation. This protocol is used by other social media, such as Mastodon. It offers users more control over their information and privacy and allows interconnection between different platforms that use it to interact with even more people.

They were going to conquer the world, but they took too long to release it and the launch turned into a follower hunt that made it extremely boring. I hope it improves over time.

I hope it's better to use than Twitter.
Overall, it is a nice app 👌 The only thing I miss is searching in the vicinity. Some regions or radar and it would be perfect 👌😈. Greetings from Tilburg ✌😜
