New social network by Meta, Threads, is using a .net domain

[capybara]

Threads.net is the URL, the .com is being used by a startup.

Forget the .Net for a second, with Meta's basically "unlimited funds" couldn't they have just created a name which would have folded into Meta? This is weird and seemed rushed.

It's personal .
Co-founder of threads .com was FB product manager.

It begs for a parody site "Threats". The owner of threats.net seems to have understood this, since it's selling for $20k.

shreds.net went up for sale, too

Can you remember the last major website to use .net?

he.net

 

[Samer]

he.net

The only one that comes to mind is Slideshare.com
I think it’s the only .com in existence to re-direct to .net

I feel like i’ve written this post a million times. Sorry : )

it is not the real zuckefeller. this is just a game/joke, nothing real, even if it is real, it is not mark's plan or decision, even if he is alive. not much different from fake biden's speech ending with "save the queen".

They are a Slack-competitor.
How much market share do you think Threads.com has?

 

[Samer]

then try he.com

WOW! Now, i’ve seen it all. He has passed Slideshare.

yeah, I just like this news, when a biggest social company uses .net for one of biggest apps

I have already set x10 BIN price for my only .net domain after this news

[HostGeeks.com]

Huge foolish blunder

to use threads.net and not a com domain

Free advertising to threads.com

FB has a market cap of over $550B. Tens of millions is change in the couch to them.

Part of this FB money will end up in Musk hands after the lawsuit Musk just filed for Copy/Paste Twitter on Threads.

Musk twitted on thursday: "Competition is fine, CHEATING IS NOT".
Zuck did Not learnt his lesson when he "created" or better said Stole the idea for Facebook, just watch the movie The Socialnetwork, all the movie was about the Lawsuit Zuckerberg Lost at the end of the story and pay Millions to the Creators of the original idea being called now Facebook.

It’s so awkward. Lmao. I never thought I’d see the day again of a big company using .net. Can you remember the last major website to use .net?

Slickdeals has been using the .net for over a decade.

However, I am not a fan of the word 'threads', it is not easily pronounceable around the world because of the dental fricative.

I agree that it's difficult to pronounce, plus it makes me think of clothing before anything else.
