Instagram’s Threads is adding a core feature of X called hashtags to its platform and has started testing the feature with select users.
Meta Founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced that Threads will begin testing the ability to tag topics on Threads to categorize posts by interest or theme.
“Testing a way to categorize your posts with a tag. Starting in Australia with more countries coming soon,” he posted.
Threads users will use the “#” symbol but tags will appear as clickable blue links.
After Australia, more countries will be able to test tags “soon.”
As you start typing, various tags will appear to help you autocomplete your tag or you can create a new tag.
After you choose the tag and publish your post, anyone can click on the tag to see other related posts on the same topic.
