Twitter rival Threads — the Meta-owned app seen as a major rival to Elon Musk’s troubled microblogging platform — already has 30 million signups, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said Thursday morning.
The newest addition to the Meta line of web-based products debuted with a bang. The much-hyped application, already dubbed the “Twitter Killer app,” officially launched Wednesday night. About two hours after that, 2 million people had already signed up for it, Zuckerberg shared in his third-ever post on the platform.
A few hours later, the Facebook co-founder went back on the site to announce 10 million people had signed up in seven hours. He also added a head-exploding emoji.
