Threads is a social network for sharing text posts and joining public conversations through "threads". The feed shows the conversations of the users you follow and obviously, as expected, you will be able to view the content recommended by other users and the most interactive content proposed by the social network.
Registration and import
As we mentioned previously, Threads is a strategic partner of Facebook and mostly Instagram, so if you associate your IG profile with Threads you will be able to inherit your followers, a quite important point since you will not start from scratch, perhaps one of the important factors when it comes to of immersing yourself in a new social network.
As always happens, not all that glitters is gold, there are some dark points in this association, apparently if for some reason you don't like Threads and decide to unsubscribe, it can affect your IG account, for the moment you will only be able to deactivate your profile for a temporary period of time. Although no one usually reads the terms of use and conditions, it is advisable to do so to avoid encountering "unexpected endings".
Usability and features
The interface is very pleasant and has the typical performance of this type of social networks, especially for those who have already gone through the Twitter experience. One of the highlights is that in a single post it allows you to add up to 10 images or videos. However, there are some points that surprise, such as not being able to save or edit a post, creating a draft of a post and then publishing it, the lack of hashtags, something that revolutionized the "little bird" network. As for the Feed, it can be said that although it has a topic search engine, it lacks a list of current topics. Other negative points are the post sampling criteria, since they do not follow a chronological order. Only allow one profile at a time, if you have more than one, you must close one to be able to log in to another.
Conclusion
While it's too early to judge it, since it's just starting out and is in beta or experimental mode, it's an interesting alternative to Twitter. Improvements will surely be seen in the short or medium term, allowing for a more thorough analysis and a more accurate assessment of the project.
If you're one of those users who loves experiencing new sensations, don't hesitate to dive into Threads. However, as mentioned before, make sure, at least for now, that you don't link it to your Instagram account until you've tried it and decided if you really like it, so you don't negatively impact your IG profile and regret your decision.
