Threads Reaches 500 Million User Milestone
Meta said 100 million users joined Threads in the past 10 months as it rolls out private feed controls and expands Communities.
- On Tuesday, Meta Platforms announced Threads reached 500 million monthly active users, nearly three years after launching as a competitor to Elon Musk's X.
- The company's 'communities' feature has fueled this growth, with Meta advancing the feature out of beta and adding a new discovery hub to help users find relevant conversations.
- To improve feed personalization, Meta introduced 'Your Algo,' a private control tool that builds on the earlier 'Dear Algo' feature launched in February.
- While X maintains an estimated 560 million monthly active users, Threads continues to narrow the gap, with Meta reporting strong year-over-year growth in daily active users globally.
- Despite this expansion, Meta CFO Susan Li noted in April that the service is not expected to be a 'meaningful driver' of revenue growth in 2026, even as the company rolls out ads in 200 countries.
