MENLO PARK, CALIFORNIA: Meta founder and CEO, Mark Zuckerberg has returned to Twitter 11 years after he last tweeted from his official handle "@finkd." The tweet came after Zuckerberg announced the launch of Instagram Threads, a "text-based conversation app," developed by Meta in direct competition with Elon Musk's Twitter.
The new social media platform, described as "an open and friendly public space for conversation," has already been dubbed as the "Twitter killer app" as several internet users believe that people will now move from Twitter to Threads in favor of the new social networking service. Meta CEO Zuckerberg also poked fun at the situation by sharing a famous 'Spider-Man' meme, referring to the similarities between Twitter and Threads.
