admin Meta’s new app ‘Threads’ has been a fire sensation, especially among youngsters. Keeping up with new trends which update almost monthly has been a task, but not for the new generation where they seem to be having fun.
The Threads app was updated on Tuesday by Meta, introducing multiple new features including the new following tab with a chronological timeline. Users can now get a dedicated feed of posts from the following accounts in one place in chronological order, and the updated user interface (UI) of the Threads app looks a lot similar to Twitter (X).
The app has been updated to be more flexible for the users by allowing the users to customize the activity feed with filters like follows, quotes, reposts and introduces a follow button to enable users to quickly follow a user directly from the activity feed. With this update, Threads is offering more control to users on how they can consume content on the newest microblogging platform.
Jumping on the bullet train, Adam Mosseri, the head of Instagram, has also confirmed that Meta is working on a desktop website for Threads, which is expected to go live in the coming days. This is the second update that Threads has released since its launch. In a Threads post, Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO of Meta, did confirm that the company is currently working on stabilising the platform and retaining users.
In the first major update, available exclusively for iOS devices, Threads introduced plenty of new features such as live translation support, tappable reposter labels, subscribe to unfollowed users, and more.
The new updates seem to be growing and only time can tell whether our new generation will love it or bring it to an end. Meta, in this way, plans to keep all their users connected to their apps and make it easier to post to all their apps through one. A move made like that, makes all content creators happy as they don’t have to post the same content on different apps differently.
