Meta's Threads has introduced public custom feeds, allowing users to share and follow feeds created by others. This update comes as Threads competes with Bluesky, which has over 30 million users and offers similar features. Users can create custom feeds without technical skills and now have the option to make them public. This change aims to enhance personalization and user engagement on Threads. While Threads focuses on interest-based feeds, Bluesky offers a wider variety of sorting options, including trending topics and video content. This distinction highlights the different approaches both platforms take in customizing user experiences.
