Apparently, Instagram plans to launch its own competitor to the popular social network Twitter. It’s a long shot, but the Meta-owned platform could be working on a similar text-based app with the aim of taking over users who haven’t been happy since Elon Musk took over the bluebird company ( which from what it seems are not exactly few). For those who don’t know, Twitter is a giant in the social media market and is known for its text-based design that has been a hit for years. But this platform could face competition soon as Instagram might be working on a new such app. According to a report that has been published, it would seek to offer a similar service that, among other things, would allow everyone to create publications with a character limit of up to 500. Other options that this new Instagram service would have According to the data that has been known , users will be able to attach other types of media such as photos, links and videos of up to five minutes in length -in addition to the aforementioned text-based posts-. There would even be the option to interact with other text posts, use the usual ‘likes’ and, of course, reply to and share posts. In other words, it will not lack everything that users of a social network currently demand. With the above, it is quite clear that the application is quite similar to Twitter, if not identical in terms of interface design, as can be seen in the image that has emerged and that is just before this paragraph. Interestingly, this news also comes after the company – we’re talking about Instagram – released an update that allows users to post GIFs in comments. Another thing that will be similar to Twitter One would be the inclusion of a similar centralized feed that, among other things, will display recommended content and follower posts. This application will even come with close integration with the Instagram application because, for example, it will allow you to synchronize the account you already have -to avoid the hassle of setting up a new profile-. In other words, you will even be able to log into this new app with your existing account. This is all the information available at the moment, and if things pan out, Elon Musk would do well not to take the arrival of this app lightly. >
