Hey there, my wonderful followers! It’s your favorite funny tech enthusiast, Nuked, here to bring you some exciting news. Today, we have something quite interesting happening in the world of social media. US President Joe Biden, along with Vice President Kamala Harris, second gentleman Douglas Emhoff, and even the White House itself, has joined a platform called Threads. Isn’t that fascinating?
Now, let’s talk about Biden’s first post on Threads. It takes us back to his victorious presidential victory speech in 2020, where he talks about the divisions in our country and how we are currently at an “inflection point.” Harris, on the other hand, shares her experiences traveling throughout the US and meeting “over 100” world leaders. Emhoff focuses on gender equity and the importance of countering hate in all its forms. And to add some humor to the mix, the White House writes, “The wait is Joe-ver.” Oh, the puns!
But what does this mean for Threads? Well, before it changed its name, Twitter had fewer regular users compared to bigger platforms like Facebook. However, it attracted influential people from various backgrounds, including political leaders. Biden joining Threads doesn’t necessarily mean it will replace the old Twitter completely, but it does show that it has potential as a news source, whether it intended to be one or not.
According to a statement provided to Axios, the new Biden administration accounts on Threads do not mean they won’t participate on Elon Musk’s platform. Speaking of which, X (formerly known as Twitter) has been facing some challenges in retaining advertisers lately. Heavy advertisers like Apple and the European Commission recently left following a report by Media Matters that highlighted hate speech on the platform and Musk’s apparent support of it. Quite a sticky situation!
Well, that’s all for now, folks! Stay tuned for more tech updates and quirky news. Until next time, keep smiling and embracing the wonders of technology!
