Mark Zuckerberg's new social network, Threads, has already passed the 100 million user mark, according to The Verge. An impressive achievement considering that the platform was launched last Thursday, the 6th.

The success of Meta Threads seems to be going a little further than simple curiosity, since on Friday it was reported that users of the platform had already shared more than 95 million publications and exchanged more than 190 million 'likes'.

As a point of comparison, OpenAI's Artificial Intelligence (AI) tool - ChatGPT - took around two months to reach 100 million users. Threads achieved this in a matter of days. It's also worth noting that Threads is not yet present in European Union territories, due to data protection legislation.

It's believed that Threads' success is partly the result of internet users' animosity towards Elon Musk's Twitter, which in recent weeks has made controversial decisions that have affected the use of the social network.
