This is the best summary I could come up with:
Meta launched its X rival called Threads on July 5 and quickly amassed more than 100 million signups, Time magazine reported, citing data from Sensor Tower.
Musk's efforts to purge the platform of bots and turn it into a "super-app" don't yet appear to be working.
Activist Monica Lewinsky urged him and CEO Linda Yaccarino to "rethink" the move.

In May Fidelity wrote down the value of its stake in the company then still known as Twitter, giving it a value of about $15 billion – or just a third of what Musk paid, The Wall Street Journal Reported.X didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from Insider, made outside normal working hours.
The original article contains 326 words, the summary contains 158 words. Saved 52%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Shocked! Shocked, I tell you!
How long does it take to roll some video akin to tiktok and snapchat into it? Weed out all the bots at the same time by demanding fotoID and root out all the dirtbags abusing the app at the same time. Texting and chatting is so last decade anyway just leave it as a remnant of its birdie roots.
If it fails Meta will likely have to be broken up, their monopoly on social media is outrageous these days.

They don't want to do that. That would destroy a significant chunk of their userbase and make X look weaker.
