Threads tests custom feeds

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced Friday that Threads is testing a new feature that lets users create personalized feeds for specific profiles or topics. This will make it easier to track interests like a favorite sports team or technology updates.

The feature is similar to what Bluesky introduced last year. As Bluesky gains users, Threads faces increasing competition, making this addition timely.

Here’s how to create and manage custom feeds on Threads:

  1. To create a new flow: Find a topic, tap the three-dot menu and select “Create new feed”. You can also tap a profile’s three-dot menu and choose “Add to Feed.”
  2. To add to an existing feed: Use the same three-dot menu options and select “Add to Feed.”
  3. To switch between streams: Scroll down on the Home screen to toggle between For You, Following, and Custom Feeds.

Bluesky and Threads are growing as people explore alternatives to a month.
