Threads is finally getting DMs
Briefly

Meta's Threads will soon allow users to send direct messages through a unique inbox rather than via linked Instagram accounts. Starting its testing phase in Hong Kong, Thailand, and Argentina, the new DM system responds to a high demand from users who sought private messaging options. The addition aims to streamline user interactions on Threads, catering especially to content creators and businesses. With easy access via a new symbol on the mobile and desktop interface, Threads intends to improve user engagement while competing with platforms like X.
Threads users will soon be able to send direct messages to each other without leaving the platform; this will improve user engagement and facilitate communication.
Meta's CEO announced that Threads will start testing its own DM system this week in selected countries, enhancing functionality and user experience.
The introduction of a separate inbox for Threads DMs addresses the most requested feature by users, allowing for easier management of messages and interactions.
This update is crucial as it brings Threads closer to competing with other platforms like X by making message management simpler for users.
