Threads, has surged to an impressive 150 million monthly active users, according to the company's first quarter 2024 earnings report announced by CEO and founder Mark Zuckerberg. Of interest is the rollercoaster ride for Threads, where active daily users fell by an astonishing 82% from launch day after about a month. Most of these users seem to be returning to the platform. Challenging Decentralized Threads Hits 150 Million Users and Plans New Features to Boost Engagement TechCrunch has reported the new platform will rival decentralized social media outfits such as Mastodon, since this new platform will allow U.S. users over 18 to link their accounts to the "Fediverse" using the ActivityPub protocol. Threads users' posts will thus be visible beyond the app's network over many servers, similar to how X is doing it right now. Integration into the Meta Ecosystem Threads reaches 150 million monthly active users in Q1 2024 While AI chatbots are used across Meta's Facebook, Messenger, WhatsApp, and Instagram, Threads is not included because there is no actual direct messaging. However, Meta plans to release a Threads API to third-party developers by June, enabling them to create their own custom apps and experiences that will work with the Threads network. Continuous innovation and growth Plans to connect Threads to the "Fediverse" with ActivityPub protocol In a statement shared by Adam Mosseri, Head of Instagram and Threads, on Wednesday, he said the feature to archive posts on the application is being experimented with "with a small number of people." This should be another feature helping toward the purpose of overall user experience enhancement and increased engagement within the Threads community. Although Threads is different from its closest rival X (formerly known as Twitter) in that it is ad-free and does not make any money as of yet, it has already overtaken that competitor in a few major markets. Reports say, according to analytic firm Apptopia, that the Threads app now counts more daily active users in the US than X. FAQs What milestone did Threads achieve in the first quarter of 2024? Threads reached 150 million monthly active users, as announced by CEO Mark Zuckerberg in the company's first quarter earnings report for 2024.

Meta plans to release a Threads API to third-party developers by June, which will enable the creation of custom apps and experiences that integrate with Threads, potentially boosting the platform's versatility and user engagement.
