Meta's Threads platform surpasses 500 million monthly users

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

Meta's Threads platform has reached a significant milestone, surpassing 500 million monthly active users. The company attributes this growth to its "communities" feature and increasing direct usage, particularly in Asia. Despite this user growth, Threads is not yet a substantial revenue driver for Meta, with expectations that it will not be a meaningful contributor until 2026. New features are being rolled out, including a discovery hub for communities and enhanced algorithm controls for users. AI
