How to Use Threads on Windows 11

TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - The social media platform owned by Meta, Threads, has been attracting the masses over the past few days. Currently, Threads recorded more than 100 million new users in less than a week. 

However, the launch in Europe Union is still delayed, since the EU has passed a new regulation, the Digital Markets Act. As quoted from The Verge, the spokesperson for Meta, Christine Pai said that the delay was caused by an "upcoming regulatory uncertainty."
