Many users complained that the app was boring, confusing, and unnecessary.

Some users even accused Facebook of over-hyping the app and copying features from other apps like Twitter and Instagram.

One user wrote on Facebook:

“I am angry at all of you that made me abandon my twitter for an hour just to download Thread. Facebook and over-hyping!”

Some users also reported technical issues with the app, such as slow loading, crashing, and bugs.

Facebook has not responded to the criticism yet, but it seems that the app has failed to meet the expectations of some users.

Thread is one of the many attempts by Facebook to diversify its products and services, as it faces increasing competition from other social media platforms like TikTok and Snapchat.

However, it remains to be seen whether Thread can survive and thrive in the crowded market.
