I dont think Threads has the legs to overtake twitter. My gut feel is that we are moving more toward content/topic specific forums for voicing opinions and comment over these broad comms channels.

It will be difficult to say who will be the leader in future but the good part is Twitter will get healthy competition.

It's uncertain whether Threads will overtake Twitter in the long run. Factors that could contribute to its success include user preference for private communication, integration with Instagram's user base, and a superior user experience. However, as Threads is relatively new, its future success and potential to surpass Twitter are uncertain. Ongoing development, user adoption, and competition will play a crucial role in determining its trajectory.

Possibly, but it needs to improve a lot, and ideally provide a way to have separate collated business and personal feeds.

Thus far Threads has been junk feeds for me. Zero quality content this far and myself and others I know are getting zero of our content viewed. The algorithm isn't working that well IMO
