Despite constant mockery from X owner Elon Musk, Threads is growing.
According to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, who shared the news during Meta’s most recent earnings call, Threads now has more than 150 million monthly active users.
That’s a pretty big increase from February, when Threads (also according to Zuckerberg) had 130 million monthly users. The app first passed 100 million users in July last year.

The company isn’t sitting on its laurels, either. On Wednesday, Head of Instagram and Threads Adam Mosseri said that Threads is testing the option to archive posts “with a small number of people.”
Individual posts can be archived manually, but you can also automatically archive all posts after a certain period of time.
According to Mosseri, Threads users said in a poll they didn’t want this to be a feature that’s on by default, so it’s added as an option.
