Elon Musk, who owns Twitter, commented on Meta’s new Threads app, comparing it to Instagram but without “thirst pics.” This comment from Musk came as Threads gained attention as a potential competitor to Twitter.
However, there have been legal disputes between Twitter and Meta, with Musk’s lawyer accusing Meta of using confidential Twitter information and former Twitter employees in the creation of Threads.
Musk’s recent tweet implies that Threads is not as appealing as Instagram because it lacks images. The leader of Instagram has acknowledged the current limitations of Threads and has promised to add more features in the future.
