Considering that instagram users pretty much have an account by default, this stat is pretty meaningless. What would be interesting is daily active users of threads software in a week or two.

I remember when they said the metaverse had 400 million users.

“Threads will be off to a running start as it is built upon the Instagram platform with its massive user base and if users adopt Threads, advertisers will be following closely behind.”

Oh boy 😍 the advertisers are here, it’s a success! /s

The thing I’m liking the most about the fediverse so far is the lack of advertising, Lemmy and Mastodon (so far) have a much bigger emphasis on conversation and cool topics, and less on trying to sell us stuff which is really refreshing :)

Instagram iirc has about 1.6 billion users. They already have the user base, they just need to find a way to persuade everyone to try it.

The quality of the content is a different matter but I don’t think that’s the end goal.
