Threads
Threads was launched in July this year, by Meta company, and initially caused a stir, as it was created to rival Twitter. In less than 24 hours, the social network already had more than 30 million users.

The change even affected the name of the social network, which was renamed X.
The app is available for Android and iOS phones and can be downloaded by users who have an Instagram account. Threads allows for text, link and video posts, as well as likes and shares. Users can also choose who can reply to their posts.
Since the app is linked to an Instagram account, users who are blocked on the network are also blocked on Threads. At the time of its launch, Meta reported that the network's goal is to encourage the formation of communities between individuals and companies through information sharing, in addition to enabling users to connect, explore common interests and exchange ideas on a variety of topics.
When it was launched, the social network experienced a boom, with many users creating their own accounts. However, a few weeks after its launch, the growth curve fell, causing the novelty to cool down.
