Meta to soon launch web version of Threads in race with X for users

Threads launched as an Android and iOS app on July 5th and gained 100 million users in just five days

Threads now offer the ability to set post notifications for accounts and view them in a type of chronological feed

Meta Platforms is set to roll out the web version of its new text-first social media platform Threads, hoping to gain an edge over X, formerly Twitter, as the initial surge in users waned.

The widely anticipated web version will make Threads more useful for power users like brands, company accounts, advertisers and journalists.
