According to The New York Times, Meta wants to create a standalone text-based app based on Instagram technology. Facebook and Instagram employees even met online at the end of November to talk about it. It has been suggested that Mark Zuckerberg will make this possible attempt to take advantage of the chaos caused by Elon Musk, already on Twitter. So what are the details? Let’s take a look at the details of the news together.
Meta wants to return to its old popular days
Facebook, with its new name Meta, has moved away from its former popularity, especially after TikTok and Instagram became widespread. Meta wants to attempt a text-based app to capitalize on Twitter’s chaos due to Elon Musk. Allegedly, Facebook and Instagram employees, who are under the umbrella of Meta, held an online meeting at the end of November.
At the meeting held for the new application, there are claims that the text-based application will be based on Instagram technology. In addition, the idea of integrating the text-based application into Instgram in the style of Reels was also discussed. Meta employees even talked about the new text-based application name being Realtime, Real Reels or Instant.
How was Meta’s Creator Week event?
Again, according to the news of the New York Times, a company employee announced that Twitter is in crisis and that Meta should regain its old magic. No research has yet been done on the application in question by Meta or Mark Zuckerberg. But that seems likely. Because Reels was also added to Instagram after TikTok was in the foreground in the same way.
