Challenging Bluesky, Threads now allows for public custom feeds
Meta’s social platform Threads is doubling down on its support for custom feeds as it faces competition from the growing social network Bluesky. According to a recent announcement by Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, users of the platform can now set their custom feeds to be publicly accessible and follow those created by others.
The move is aimed at further challenging Bluesky, which has gained popularity due to its ability to allow users to create custom feeds that are tailored to their interests. This feature was initially introduced by the social network last year, as a response to the growing demand for personalized content from users.
In contrast, Threads’ custom feed creation process requires no technical expertise and can be achieved by anyone without any coding knowledge. This makes it more accessible to a broader audience.
The company believes that its public feeds will allow people to take advantage of feeds built by others and pin them to their home screen.
