The same was announced by Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg in a post on Threads. With this, Thread dethrones <!-- -->ChatGPT<!-- --> as the fastest-growing online platform to hit the milestone. Threads has been setting records for user growth since its launch on July 4th last week. The app&#8217;s ride to 100 million users was much speedier than that of Microsoft-backed OpenAI-owned ChatGPT, which became the fastest-growing consumer app in history in January. OpenAI\u2019s chatbot passed the 100 million mark two months after its launch.<br \/>&#8220;That&#8217;s mostly organic demand, and we haven&#8217;t even turned on many promotions yet,&#8221; Zuckerberg said in a Threads post announcing the milestone.<br \/>With celebrities, politicians and other newsmakers joining the platform that is seen by analysts as the first serious threat to the Elon Musk-owned microblogging app.<br \/><span class=\"strong\">What Zuckerberg said<\/span><br \/>&#8220;Threads reached 100 million sign ups over the weekend. That&#8217;s mostly organic demand and we haven&#8217;t even turned on many promotions yet. Can&#8217;t believe it&#8217;s only been 5 days!&#8221; said Zuckerberg. <br \/>Instagram head <!-- -->Adam Mosseri<!-- --> also posted about it. &#8220;100 million people signed up for Threads in five days. I\u2019m not sure I can wrap my mind around that fact. It\u2019s insane; I can\u2019t make sense of it. The team has been busting their ass, but we know this is a race to the starting line. They say \u201cmake it work, make it great, make it grow.\u201d Well, we certainly did things out of order, but I promise we will make this thing great,&#8221; he wrote. <br \/><span class=\"strong\">Not aiming to replace Twitter<\/span><br \/>Earlier Mosseri also insisted that with Threads, the company is not trying to replace Twitter. &#8220;The goal isn&#8217;t to replace Twitter. The goal is to create a public square for communities on Instagram that never really embraced Twitter and for communities on Twitter (and other platforms) that are interested in a less angry place for conversations, but not all of Twitter. Politics and hard news are inevitably going to show up on Threads &#8211; they have on Instagram as well to some extent &#8211; but we&#8217;re not going to do anything to encourage those verticals,&#8221; he wrote.<\/div>\n<p><script>!(function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n    function loadFBEvents(isFBCampaignActive) \n      if (!isFBCampaignActive) \n        return;<\/p>\n<p>      (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) \n        if (f.fbq) return;\n        n = f.fbq = function() \n          n.callMethod ? n.callMethod(...arguments) : n.queue.push(arguments);\n        ;\n        if (!f._fbq) f._fbq = n;\n        n.push = n;\n        n.loaded = !0;\n        n.version = '2.0';\n        n.queue = [];\n        t = b.createElement(e);\n        t.async = !0;\n        t.defer = !0;\n        t.src = v;\n        s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n        s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n      )(f, b, e, 'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js', n, t, s);\n      fbq('init', '593671331875494');\n      fbq('track', 'PageView');\n    ;<\/p>\n<p>    function loadGtagEvents(isGoogleCampaignActive) \n      if (!isGoogleCampaignActive) \n        return;<\/p>\n<p>      var id = document.getElementById('toi-plus-google-campaign');\n      if (id) \n        return;<\/p>\n<p>      (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) \n        t = b.createElement(e);\n        t.async = !0;\n        t.defer = !0;\n        t.src = v;\n        t.id = 'toi-plus-google-campaign';\n        s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n        s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n      )(f, b, e, 'https:\/\/www.googletagmanager.com\/gtag\/js?id=AW-877820074', n, t, s);\n    ;<\/p>\n<p>    window.TimesApps = window.TimesApps || ;\n    var TimesApps = window.TimesApps;\n    TimesApps.toiPlusEvents = function(config) \n      var isConfigAvailable = \"toiplus_site_settings\" in f && \"isFBCampaignActive\" in f.toiplus_site_settings && \"isGoogleCampaignActive\" in f.toiplus_site_settings;\n      var isPrimeUser = window.isPrime;\n      if (isConfigAvailable && !isPrimeUser) \n        loadGtagEvents(f.toiplus_site_settings.isGoogleCampaignActive);\n        loadFBEvents(f.toiplus_site_settings.isFBCampaignActive);\n       else \n        var JarvisUrl=\"https:\/\/jarvis.indiatimes.com\/v1\/feeds\/toi_plus\/site_settings\/643526e21443833f0c454615?db_env=published\";\n        window.getFromClient(JarvisUrl, function(config)\n          if (config) \n            loadGtagEvents(config?.isGoogleCampaignActive);\n            loadFBEvents(config?.isFBCampaignActive);<\/p>\n<p>        )<\/p>\n<p>    ;\n  })(\n    window,\n    document,\n    'script',\n  );<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/>[ad_2]<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/gadgets-news\/facebook-breaks-chatgpt-record-with-its-new-app\/articleshow\/101647733.cms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] Move over ChatGPT, we have a new claimant for the fastest 100 million downloads.
