Threads and Twitter: A Comparison
Threads, the new social media platform, has been integrated into my daily life. While it is not on my primary home screen, it has made its way out of the app drawer and onto one of my home screens. I find myself opening it for casual, passive entertainment, similar to how I use Instagram. It provides a scrolling experience and the ability to engage with threads and reply to people. However, since it lacks direct messaging, I still rely on Twitter for news and engage with it more frequently. Overall, my social media usage has shifted, with Instagram taking a larger portion and Twitter and Threads sharing the remaining units.
