The threat suggests that Threads is the most serious rival yet to Elon Musk’s chaotic social platform.
Twitter is threatening legal action against Meta over its new text-based “Twitter killer” platform, accusing the social media giant of poaching former employees to create a “copycat” application.
The use of the word “copycat” in an official communication just seems to immature and juvenile to me.
But honestly, whatever…Threads will either sink Twitter once and for all, or both will fight each other to the death, and those are both win-win in my book.
