Meta has revealed it is working on a new social network solely designed for sharing text updates.

 

The app would appear to be a direct competitor to Twitter, with a company spokesperson confirming it will be a "decentralised" platform similar to other alternatives that grew in popularity after Elon Musk's takeover.

 

"We're exploring a standalone decentralised social network for sharing text updates," a Meta statement said.

I remember when Google launched Google+ and went all in on it to counter the rise of facebook.

 

They failed miserably.

 

Fighting the first mover and dominant player is not a great strategy.

 

Facebook are trying to remain relevant - they will fail, might take another 10 years or so but it's going to happen.

I don't think Facebook would have undertaken this were it not for the fact that Twitter appears to be vulnerable.
