    It appears that Meta was aware of Threads before launching its platform of the same name. Company lawyers made four offers to purchase the domain ‘threads.app’ from Threads Software Ltd from April 2023, all of which were declined. Meta announced Threads in July 2023, the same time that the British company says it was removed from Facebook.

    Classic Facebook douchebaggery.

        Looks like it’s his only original idea.

          I mean, it is a very descriptive name for a social media commenting app. Im not surprised he went with it.

      Didn’t they do the same thing to Meta? Aren’t they being sued now?
