The 24 Absolute Best Threads App Reactions You'll See Today

Even though there always seem to be "staples" when it comes to social media platforms—Facebook being one of them—platforms shift over time and sometimes go kaput. Before Facebook, there was Myspace, and before Twitter, there was Tumblr (which still exists but on a far less popular level). Then things like Snapchat, TikTok and BeReal were added into the mix. And while Twitter seemed to be one of the OGs, so to speak, now people are jumping the Twitter ship after Elon Musk bought it out and started implementing changes. So now, a new app, Threads, is swooping in to scoop up Twitter's users.

Threads is an app developed by Meta, the company behind Facebook and Instagram, which was founded by Mark Zuckerberg. And while the app has some growing to do (right now, it doesn't have things like hashtags, which is truly what makes Twitter tick), people are already stoked about the new platform and potential switch. Whether you have made a Threads account yet or not, these 24 memes and reactions to the Threads app will have you rolling on the floor (and maybe downloading the app to your phone).
