> path to 1 billion people

Also Insta has 1bn+ active MAUs and Meta us leaning heavily on Insta for Threads

Sure, but those 1 billion people could have signed up for Twitter at any point in the last 17 years if they were interested. Twitter already maxed out its user base, so I'm skeptical that there's a 1 billion potential here.

Personally I signed up for threads and have been liking using it so far even though I never really used twitter. I think it has lower startup cost than Twitter because the algorithmic feed really works well without having to manually follow a lot of people. So I think there is reason for Zuck to dream big.

Twitter has an algorithmic feed.

Either way, Threads runs very lightweight, and can easily go 10 years with no revenue.
