Bobby Allyn: NPR tech reporter on the collapse of Twitter leading to successful launch of Threads

from The Sunday Session with Francesca Rudkin · host Newstalk ZB

Mark Zuckerberg's newly launched 'Twitter killer' platform is enjoying a successful launch. More than 70 million people have now joined Meta’s Threads in 48 hours, upending the social media landscape and shattering records. NPR tech reporter Bobby Allyn says the success of Threads is due to Twitter becoming more chaotic and unusable since Elon Musk took over. "It's become so full of hate and drivel that Mark Zuckerberg thought- you know what, let's make a more tame version of this. He did it, and it's been a total runaway success."  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
