It seems that Twitter\u2019s leadership, including Elon Musk and CEO Linda Yaccarino, has recently been taking Meta\u2019s Threads\u2014its rival\u2014quite seriously. The microblogging platform has reportedly started limiting search results when users search for links and accounts related to Threads content.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cTwitter is selectively blocking searches for tweets that link to Threads, even though they allow posting Threads URLs (for now),\u201d a user wrote on Twitter.<\/span><\/p>\n

Meta\u2019s Threads recently surpassed the 100 million user mark, positioning itself as a serious competitor to Twitter. TechCrunch reports that Twitter is making it more difficult for users to find conversations about Threads or search for profiles.<\/span><\/p>\n

Andy Baio, a technologist, was among the first few people who noticed that Twitter was limiting search results when he searched using the operator \u201curl:threads.net.\u201d This search revealed no results.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Similarly, searching for \u201cthreads.net\u201d without the \u201curl:\u201d operator returns a plethora of irrelevant results from users who have their Threads account in their display name or who discuss Threads without linking to it.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Twitter, under Elon Musk\u2019s ownership, has a history of imposing limitations on links to various platforms such as Substack, Mastodon, and other social media networks. <\/span><\/p>\n

Although these actions are internal company decisions, Musk has not shied away from openly criticizing Mark Zuckerberg\u2014who\u2019s the owner of rival platform Threads. Musk recently took to Twitter, referring to Zuckerberg as a \u201ccuck,\u201d and rumors about a potential faceoff between the two in a supposed \u201ccage match\u201d are heating up.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
