Meta threads double support for personalized flows because it faces Bluesky growing social network, now with Over 30 million userswhich also offers personalized flows as one of its main characteristics. Tuesday, the Meta-PDG Mark Zuckerberg announcement The fact that users can now define their personalized flows to be public and follow the personalized flows made by others.
Meta thinks that her personalized flows are superior to the others because they can be built without technical skills by anyone. With public flows, people can now take advantage of the flows built by others and pin them on their home screen.
The launch is designed to further challenge Bluesky, which introduced the idea of building personalized flows as part of its social network, a rival of X.
Although Bluesky has greatly benefited from an influx of people leaving X for something that looks like and feels similar, he managed to keep his first adopters thanks to his variety of tools that allow people to make the network their own, including personalized flows. Today, these flows are built both by the Bluesky team and other third -party developers, allowing people to switch between different views of the network, instead of being forced to default only to the algorithmic flow of Bluesky, ” Discover ”.
As Bluesky grew up, threads also capitalized on user demand for more personalization, deploying its own version of personalized flows with world users last November. This decision only occurred a few days after Zuckerberg announced that a functionality test was live, signaling Meta working quickly to overthrow part of the Bluesky momentum.
To use the personalized thread flows, you will first look for a subject to see the latest items, then press the three -point menu and choose “Create new flows”. You can also customize the flows by adding user profiles specific to a given flow by pressing the three-point icon above the profile photo of a user, then adding them to the flow of your choice.
To make these foods now, you will use and hold the flow, then press “Modify the flows”. From there, you can switch your flow in “audience”.
Threads will also allow you to share your public flow with others via a link or DM by pressing “Display the flow” from the feeds editing settings where you can use the quote icon to publish an overview of Your personalized flow. You then use the “Share feed” button to send the personalized flow to others.
Since the launch, users of threads have created personalized flows on subjects such as sports, books, art, astronomy, fashion, poetry, design, etc.
However, unlike Bluesky, personalized threads of threads are mainly focused on interest, while personalized Bluesky flows can be based on interest or simply different ways to sort and filter the content on Bluesky. For example, Bluesky offers flows that focus on the trend of your network, those that help you make up for what you have missed, those who focus only on video, and more.
