If Threads exhibits the identical Reels and Instagram images then how is it competing with Twitter?
Instagram’s Adam Mosseri had made one factor clear, earlier this yr– the way forward for Instagram is brief movies and never images. But now there’s Thread– a brand new app which is positioned to drive discussions– largely texts. Why? Because Mark Zuckerberg needs to tackle Elon Musk-owned Twitter and drive ‘friendly’ discussions on social media.
For all these years, the Instagram viewers is considerably moulded to eat quick movies and memes, they don’t seem to be into heated discussions that largely occur on Twitter.

While individuals are simply signing on Threads and beginning to use it, what we’re attending to see on Threads is usually the identical previous images and movies which can be already posted on Instagram. For most customers, Threads has turn out to be one other app to dump the identical content material they’re posting on TikTookay, Youtube Shorts and Instagram Reels.
To set some home guidelines, Mosseri mentioned, “For those of you trying to think about what to post here on Threads versus on Instagram, my take is it’s less about text versus photos and videos and more about what public conversations you want to have. Do you want to engage in more of a back and forth, Threads make sense. If not, great, probably Instagram…”
So, mainly, what Mosseri is not directly hinting at is that customers ought to preserve images and movies to Instagram solely. And the ‘engagement’ they normally drive within the feedback part of posts needs to be carried ahead to Threads.
If Threads has to succeed and serve its true goal then it must be dominated by critical conversations minus the hate on Twitter. Else, if Threads exhibits the identical Reels and Instagram images then how is it competing with Twitter?
