The most popular agenda item of social media users lately is Threads, Meta’s Twitter rival platform. According to the latest news, the platform, which started to lose users while gaining users on the one hand, seems to be able to stay on the agenda for a while. However, this time Threads is the subject of our news with an unprecedented topic.
With only a few weeks of history, Threads led to the popularity of a different app on Apple’s app store, the App Store. The application, which has the same name and has a Slack-like structure, started to become popular with Meta’s release of Threads. So much so that this application rose to the 52nd place among the most downloaded applications in the App Store after Threads.
The dev team is aware of the situation!
The developers of Threads, the Slack-like platform, are aware that users are mistakenly starting to prefer them. Even adding a note about this to their website, the team said, “We have nothing to do with Instagram.” Threads, which does not belong to Meta, is expected to return to the old user base in the near future.
The incident is not a first in history. Similar things have happened with the instant messaging app Signal in the past. In fact, after Elon Musk shared about this application, investors caused the shares of a different company to gain 13 times in value. While all this is happening, let’s give an important information: In such cases, malicious software with the same name can be resurrected. After a while, such a situation may occur for Threads as well.
We are waiting for those who want to reach the real Threads application to our content below:
