According to the App Store listing, Instagram Threads, Meta's Twitter competitor, is set to launch on July 6th.
The app will allow users to engage in text-based conversations and connect with their favorite creators and like-minded individuals.
Instagram Threads will integrate with the decentralized social media protocol called ActivityPub, used by Mastodon.
The app's availability for download on July 6th doesn't guarantee immediate posting capabilities, suggesting a possible slow rollout.
Twitter's recent changes are causing frustration among users looking for alternative platforms due to measures like blocking unregistered users and implementing rate limits.
TweetDeck, a popular tool for journalists and social media professionals, is undergoing major changes and is set to become a paid feature, leading users to explore other options like Bluesky.
