The American businessman, CEO of Tesla, Elon Musk, wrote a tweet on Twitter to the founder of Meta, Mark Zuckerberg, in which he said that the latter’s wife uses a Tesla car without his knowledge.
Musk tweeted, “Your wife is driving a Tesla. You may or may not know that, but I sure do.”
This generated a lot of interaction among Twitter users.
It is noteworthy that the “Threads” application, launched by the “Meta Platforms” company, achieved rapid spread in the first hours of its launch, as the number of subscribers reached 70 million subscribers in the first 24 hours.
At a time when the “Twitter” platform is faltering, Mark Zuckerberg has dealt another blow to Elon Musk at a time when the competition between the two leading tech billionaires has intensified, as he launched “Threads”, a long-awaited companion to Instagram, that is challenging “Twitter”.
The application is very similar to Twitter, as it allows the creation of short text posts that users can like, repost and respond to.
Reasons for the rapid spread of Threads
An expert confirmed to Sky News that the rapid spread of the new application, “Threads”, which was joined in the first 24 hours by 70 million users, is due to several reasons, which are:
“Threads relies on the Instagram application, which has nearly 2 and a half billion users, and therefore there is ease in users moving to the new application, even with the same username and password.”
The second issue is related to the publicity that accompanied the launch of this application.
New features such as tweets or posts reaching 500 characters, compared to 280 characters in Twitter, if the account is not verified.
The new application also allows for video clips of up to 5 minutes in duration.
And the expert believes that “it is difficult to judge the matter now, with regard to attracting public confidence, especially since the application will apply to the use policy of Mita, which is a more strict policy than Twitter.”
After Musk acquired Twitter, he promised that the app would allow “great freedom of expression through posts, compared to Meta apps.”
It is difficult to predict the future of “Threads” now, especially since it “still lacks some basic features, such as private messages between users.”
And the expert points out that “the room is still open for Musk to back down from some issues related to harassing users for free on Twitter, and to be content with usage profits and advertisements such as social networks.”
It is difficult for the new application to eliminate the “Twitter” application, because it is easy for any application to add a set of features to attract users again.
In addition, the large number of social networking applications may cause inconvenience to some users, who do not want the large number of applications that share almost the same characteristics.
It is noteworthy that the “Threads” application has become available in the Apple Store and Play Store at 23 pm Wednesday GMT, with active accounts on it for celebrities such as Shakira and Jack Black, in addition to media outlets and platforms such as Hollywood Reporter, Vice and Netflix.
“Let’s get started now. Welcome to Threads,” Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg wrote in his first post on the new app.
