TOKYO -- India accounted for more than a quarter of all downloads of Threads, Meta's new social media platform, in the days after its launch this month, pointing to a user base more tilted toward emerging economies than that of its rival Twitter.
Threads racked up more than 100 million users between its release on July 6 Japan time and July 11. An analysis of global downloads over that period with support from Sensor Tower shows that India had the biggest share at 27.1% -- twice that of the U.S., Meta's home country, which ranked second at 13.6%.
