Instagram to Launch Twitter Competitor This Summer
Meta is reportedly launching a new text-based app this summer that will partially integrate with Instagram and serve as a decentralized microblogging platform. The app, codenamed P92 or Barcelona, will be interoperable with Mastodon and use the same community guidelines as Instagram. Users will be able to log in with their Instagram credentials, and text posts will be up to 500 characters, with the ability to upload photos, links, and videos up to five minutes long. Meta is targeting high-profile public figures to get early access, and the app will be decentralized and interoperable with Mastodon.
