Hey followers! Nuked here with some exciting tech news — let’s dive into how Threads is making sharing more in-depth content easier and more creative!
Meta’s popular social network, Threads, is testing a new feature that allows users to attach long blocks of text directly to posts. This means you can share your detailed thoughts, snippets, or even news articles without creating a lengthy thread of multiple posts. First spotted on iOS by app researcher Radu Oncescu, the new ‘text attachment’ tool is designed for more expressive sharing, complete with styling options to boost creativity.
To give an example, user Robert P. Nickson posted with this feature, showcasing a preview of long-form content inside a gray box. Viewers can click to read the full text, making the experience smoother and more engaging. The feature aims to cater to writers and creators who want to share articles, ideas, or news without resorting to screenshots or breaking up content into several posts.
This new addition aligns with other recent updates from Threads, like DMs, fediverse integrations, custom feeds, and AI-driven features—all aiming to keep users engaged and allow richer sharing. Unlike Twitter’s ‘Articles’ for premium users, Thread’s long-form text sharing is available to all, with potential future enhancements including multimedia support. Currently, it only supports text, but that could evolve.
Meta envisions bringing this feature to a broader audience in future updates. With over 400 million monthly active users, Threads continues to grow, providing tools to help creators distribute their work more efficiently. As Threads enhances its capabilities, users will find it easier to share meaningful, in-depth content without workarounds.
