Meta\u2019s newly-launched social media platform Threads is reportedly planning to introduce a \u2018Following\u2019 tab feature on the platform, which is similar to the popular micro-blogging application Twitter.<\/p>\n

In response to a query related to the \u2018Following\u2019 tab, Instagram head Adam Mosseri on Friday said, \u201cWe\u2019re working on it, but the next week is all about getting rid of bugs and keeping the lights on\u2026”<\/p>\n

Replying to another thread, Mosseri explained, \u201cWe\u2019ve got to build a following feed over the next couple weeks, but I do think a lot of why people are getting so much engagement right now is because you don\u2019t need to follow a bunch of people in order to discover a bunch of new accounts in feed.”<\/p>\n

Meta\u2019s Threads app already has over 95 million posts and users have liked more than 190 million times within a day of its launch. These numbers were achieved on both iOS and Android platforms, and the app is currently the top free app on the Apple App Store<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Threads is a new app, built by the Instagram team, for sharing text updates and joining public conversations. You log in using your Instagram account and posts can be up to 500 characters long and include links, photos, and videos up to 5 minutes in length.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

According to the company, similar to Instagram, with Threads users can follow and connect with friends and creators who share their interests, including the people they follow on Instagram. Also, users under 16 (or under 18 in certain countries) will be defaulted into a private profile when they join the app. In Threads, users have the ability to control who can mention or reply to them.<\/p>\n

Similar to Instagram, users can add specific words to filter out replies that contain those words in their threads. They can also unfollow, block, restrict or report a profile on Threads by tapping the three-dot menu, and any accounts they have blocked on Instagram will automatically be blocked on Threads.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
