"ore than 30 million people have signed up to Threads, Meta's rival to Twitter, within the first few hours of its launch, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said late Thursday morning.
The number is likely to grow quickly as more Instagram users and social media fans open accounts on Threads. The app is the biggest challenger yet to Elon Musk-owned Twitter, which has seen a series of potential competitors emerge but not yet replace one of social media's most iconic companies, despite its epic struggles.
"Wow, 30 million sign ups as of this morning. Feels like the beginning of something special, but we've got a lot of work ahead to build out the app," Zuckerberg wrote on Threads at 11 a.m. ET on Thursday.
The app went live on Apple and Android app stores in 100 countries at 7:00 p.m. ET on Wednesday and won't have ads for now.
Threads had been slated for release at 10 a.m. EDT Thursday but the company on Wednesday pushed forward its countdown clock."...
