Threads is here again with a brand new innovation. Threads launched its web feature in August. However, there was a big deficiency. Previously, you could only quote the content you liked. It now allows you to quote posts from around the web. X is using all its trump cards in its competition with Twitter, formerly known as Twitter.
Quoting in Threads web is now possible!
Threads hit the agenda like a bomb at a time when Elon Musk changed Twitter’s logo and updated its name to X. Although it rose very quickly, it almost crashed. Meta has released new updates to avoid losing users. It also transfers some features of its biggest rival, X, to its own structure.
It triggered competition at a time when Twitter users were overwhelmed by the new features of an X. But technically it had a lot of shortcomings. Threads web was one of them. Finally, he heard the voices of his users. It released its web feature in August. However, it had a very important shortcoming. It was not possible to quote on the web and retweet on Twitter. Although Musk also removed the retweet feature in X.
Adam Mosseri gave the good news in his statement on Thursday. You’ll be able to use quote posts on the web starting this week. So how can we use this feature? To quote a post, you must click on the two arrow icons. Then just click “cite”.
Mosseri also gave another good news to Threads users on mobile. He said his users can follow a topic and receive notifications about it. It looks like this feature is only available for Android devices. There is no statement for iOS yet.
These may seem like tiny steps. But even small features can help spice up Threads. In this way, it helps make it feel like it could be a viable alternative to X (formerly Twitter). However, X is still very much alive despite all the sensational developments. It seems that people do not give up their habits easily. Threads has a long way to go to replace Twitter, formerly known as X.
