Since Meta's new Twitter clone Threads went online nearly two weeks ago, it has mostly delivered on the promise that came with it. Threads looks and feels a lot like Twitter without the caustic rhetoric . There's a kind of congenial feel as people dip their feet into a new social media pool while remaining wary of the Metaverse and its ultimate intentions.
But there is still a ways to go, something Threads has acknowledged. If we were among those making the decisions on what features to unleash next, we would prioritize things that makes Threads even more like Twitter because, for all the hate surrounding the massive social media entity, Twitter remains king in that domain for now. Here are four changes we think would make joining Threads even more desirable, and perhaps even worthy of quitting Twitter altogether.
Trending Topics are a part of most social media feeds in one form or another, but Instagram prefers their algorithm via search as a means of sending you what it believes you will like. The problem is that it leaves you in whatever rabbit hole you've already been down, a virtual echo chamber of the same stuff, whereas Twitter shows you whatare looking for and talking about. It's a critical component of Twitter and one Threads would do well to adopt.
