Threads Signs Up Nearly 100 Million Users In Two Days

The new "Twitter killer" app Threads (from Meta) has signed up nearly 100 million users in two days.

Ok, so I knew folks were done with Elon Musk’s antics with Twitter ever since he bought the social media platform some months ago.

But I think everyone’s mind is blown that the new “Twitter killer” app Threads (from Meta) has signed up nearly 100 million users in two days.

From Digital Information World:

Just to give you a better understanding of the mega success it has attained in a two-day span, even the world’s leading apps couldn’t make the breakthrough records and success it has attained.

Remember, ChatGPT got 100 million users in two months while TikTok got 100 million downloads in 9 months. Meanwhile, Meta’s own Instagram attained 100 million downloads in just 2.5 years.

So as you can see, Meta’s Threads getting 100 million users in two days is blowing people’s minds, including that of Elon Musk.

Did we mention the fact that these are users hailing from the region outside of the European Union? 

Elon Musk and Team Twitter are sooo not-happy that the new platform, which they call a “complete copy of Twitter,” is exploding. Musk’s lawyers have already sent letters announcing planned legal action.
