Meta’s top executives have recently revealed a preview of Twitter‘s rival app that Meta has been working on to its employees. The new project that Instagram has been working on titled ‘Project 92’ internally, is designed to compete with Twitter and will integrate with ActivityPub, the decentralized social media protocol.
The ActivityPub will enable its users to seamlessly transfer their accounts and followers to other apps that support ActivityPub, including Mastodon.
The company’s executive Cox said that they are in early talks with celebrities including Oprah and Dalai Lama to commit to the platform and Meta will soon introduce the App to users. As shared by ‘ The Verge’ you can preview what the app will look like.
Though the new app will be based on Instagram, the app will have all the features currently Twitter has including Feed, replay, share, retweet, and more.
We’ve heard from creators and public figures who want a platform that’s well-managed, trustworthy, and reliable for content distribution. Our aim for the app is to prioritize safety, user-friendliness, and reliability. We want to provide creators with a stable environment to build and expand their audiences.
