Summary
Threads is experimenting with a way to more privately share posts with smaller groups of followers. The app said it's testing "Threads Friends" in Ireland, Italy and Japan.The feature is basically like a "close friends" list for Threads. It allows people to opt to share posts with up to 50 friends (or "Thriends" as the app also calls it) without making it visible to anyone else on the platform. If that sounds familiar, it's also remarkably similar to a feature Twitter introduced back in 2022 called "Circles."
