    They already had Instagram. Just take Instagram and replaced pictures and video with text. Job done. Tbh I’m not even sure why it needs a separate app instead of just adding it to insta.

      Compartmentalization. Instagram + Threads would just = facebook lol. Threads is their microblogging platform, instagram is their image platform, messenger/whatsapp for messaging etc.
