Meta launched today, Tuesday, a much-needed feature in its new application, Threads, through which it seeks to compete with Twitter.
With the "follow-up updates" feature, the user can see posts in chronological order, only for the accounts he follows, and not for the rest of the accounts that the application algorithm chooses based on user interests.
This update was highly requested by Threads users since the launch of the app, according to CNN.
Threads has been a huge success since its launch, with more than 100 million users in its first launch week, but engagement has dropped somewhat since then.
Mark Zuckerberg, CEO of Meta, owner of Threads and Facebook, said that there are 10 million people returning to the app every day, stressing that the focus is now on improving the app.
Several updates
The latest update came among other updates launched by the company, on Tuesday, including automatic translation into the languages selected by users, and seeing the publications that they liked in a group with each other.
The changes came after another set of updates, last week, that included a translation button and the option to subscribe and receive notifications from accounts the user doesn't follow.
