Instagram works to launch a text-based app that could work like Twitter. This kind of rumor come since March.
Instagram now testing this project with celebrities and influencers. If the work on this project is complete then they will launch it in the upcoming month. This new app is based on Instagram and is also compatible with other apps like Mastodon.
This app enables users to search for other users and interact with them like see their profile and post.
In this, new app there is a central feed that shows users with their followers and recommended content.
At last, in this app, users can post and update their text posts up to 500 characters.
Based on a (somewhat blurry) example I got, Meta’s new app looks a lot like Twitter.
So, could this take over all the Twitter screenshots we’ve been seeing on the Feed lately? Maybe.
It’s impossible to predict how audiences will respond but this could be an alternative. pic.twitter.com/xgQa1kUjCl
