#twitter threads

For a number of years now, users on Twitter have been using "threads", which are basically a chain of consecutive tweets, used to tell a story or expand a train of thought. Twitter has now added a new official function to make threads easier for users by adding a plus button to the composer. Threads are now more easily identifiable, as they are now labeled with "Show this thread". You can now download Threads, Meta's Twitter competitor, on both your iOS and Android devices. Like Twitter, users can share and post text on a feed — to which followers and other people can reply. Thread users will also have the ability to post videos and images, just like Twitter. A big part of the Threads app is its integration with one of Meta's flagship services, Instagram. At the moment, users will be required to already have an Instagram account to use Threads.
