What part of threads could they even argue was stolen from Twitter? It’s an open source protocol plus Instagram logins. You think Facebook needed to hire people to tell them about how to post text on the internet?
They already had Instagram. Just take Instagram and replaced pictures and video with text. Job done. Tbh I'm not even sure why it needs a separate app instead of just adding it to insta.
Compartmentalization. Instagram + Threads would just = facebook lol. Threads is their microblogging platform, instagram is their image platform, messenger/whatsapp for messaging etc.
