Meta to Launch Twitter Rival This Week

Meanwhile, as Twitter struggles to find its footing with new owner Elon Musk, NADA is set to unveil its latest app this week called Threads, which aims to appear to mimic Twitter. So for more, let's bring in our senior reporter Michelle Castillo, who's been watching that for us, Michelle. So what do we know so far about threads? I know it's coming out tomorrow and I'm really fascinated by this. Well, as you said, Veta is preparing to launch a brand new app called Threads and we know this because there was a new listing that appeared on Apple's App Store. It describes threads as a text based conversation app and as indicated it would debut as early as tomorrow according to screenshots displayed on the app store listing, excuse me, meta will allow Instagram users to keep their user names and follow the same accounts on the new app. Now, I did reach out to meta and they did decline to comment on the app at this time, but they did point me to uh to mark Zuckerberg's Instagram stories where he is posting a lot about the app and will post more in the future. Now, Twitter co founder, Jack Dorsey did comment on the app. He tweeted screenshots from the app stores privacy section saying all your threads are belong to us, which new Twitter owner Elon Musk replied to saying, yeah, so we're all waiting to see how this plays out. And as I mentioned, you can take a look at Mark Zuckerberg's recent Instagram stories. He hasn't said much yet, but we are expecting this to launch on Thursday. Now. There have already been plenty of Twitter alternatives that have tried to pop up, but like Macedon Post and blue sky so far, none have gathered crowds quite like. Yeah, and I noticed if you go on to Instagram and you just type in threads in the search, it gives you a ticket that you're able to click on, that allows you to sort of subscribe early to maybe get a heads up of when threads officially goes live. And then it also points you directly to the app store on Apple, which you know you mentioned as well. Michelle Castello breaking that all down for us, Michelle. Thank you so much for that.
