Summary

  • Threads, the messaging app owned by Meta, has added a new feature that allows users to share their custom feeds with others.
  • The process involves making the feed public, which can then be accessed by other users through a new ‘feeds’ tab on the creator’s profile.
  • Other users can then pin the shared feed to their homepage, enabling them to access the same curated content.
  • This new feature is in addition to previously announced plans to introduce ads to the Threads platform.
  • It seems that Threads is steadily diverging from its previous role as a experimental app for new features to a more mature platform, with the introduction of customised feeds and now ads.
  • This is part of Meta’s wider strategy to monetise its offerings through ads and subscriptions, as well as develop its metaverse ecosystem.
