Meta’s new text-based social network, Threads, has eclipsed 100 million users in its first five days.
That puts Threads among the most downloaded social media platforms in the United States, rivaling even TikTok, which had 102.3 million active U.S. users in May, according to data from Insider Intelligence.

In a Monday post on Threads announcing the milestone, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said the user base was “mostly organic demand” and Meta has not “turned on many promotions yet.”
But Threads has benefited from its integration with Instagram, Meta’s photo-sharing social network that had an estimated 135 million active U.S. users in May. Users are able to sign up for a Threads account by linking from their Instagram account.
