The new social media platform is a direct challenger to Elon Musk’s Twitter which has been in turmoil since the Tesla CEO took over the platform.
Instagram’s new Twitter competitor app “Threads” has logged over 100 million users in under a week, according to Quiver Quantitative’s Threads Tracker. This makes Threads the fastest-growing app in history. OpenAI’s ChatGPT previously held the crown for recording 100 million active users, but it took the app two months to reach the milestone.
The new microblogging platform was launched in 100 countries including India last week. In a matter of hours, the app proved to be a hit among users, amassing 30 million users within its first 24 hours, making it the fastest-downloaded app ever. On Friday, however, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced that Threads had crossed 70 million sign-ups.
