What We Know About Meta's 'P92' – The Twitter Rival
Meta is developing a decentralized social media platform, the company told Platformer on Friday, reportedly designed to compete with Twitter after the app has undergone significant changes. According to Meta, it's “exploring a standalone app for text updates.” This suggests a direct confrontation with Twitter's core functionality.
As reported by Platformer and MoneyControl, Meta's developing a new platform, currently titled ‘P92’, which sounds very similar to a Twitter feed, and interestingly, will be decentralized. This move signals a shift towards user empowerment and potentially greater control over content.
'P92' Will Be Text-Based and Decentralized
Now, according to recent reports, Meta is currently working on a plan to build a standalone text-based content app. Unnamed sources told Moneycontrol that the platform will be focused on short, text-based updates, mirroring Twitter's core function. The decentralized nature of 'P92' distinguishes it from Twitter and other centralized social media platforms, promising potentially more user autonomy.
The Future of Social Media: Meta vs. Twitter
With Meta's foray into the decentralized social media sphere with 'P92', the competition in the short-form text-based communication space is set to intensify. Will 'P92' be the decentralized Twitter alternative users are looking for? Stay tuned for updates on this developing story. The landscape of social media is changing, and Meta's 'P92' could be a game-changer.
