Thread News

I'm very intrigued by the team's aspirations. This is definitely on trend with where social media is headed: personalization and high signal to noise ratio of UGC

Really really nice. Great UI and speedy too!

No obnoxious ads. Brilliant curating. Ease of use.

It’s so nice to use an app that feels like it was made for me instead of for others to profit off me.

I'm quite curious to try the app, but just tried to download and discovered this doesn't seem to be available in the UK at the moment. Any plans to expand to other countries?

Hey Product Hunt! I'm Nick, one of the makers of Thread, and I'm thrilled to share our launch with the Product Hunt community. We built Thread because we felt burned out on social media and wanted a simple, healthy way to keep up with the news and our favorite podcasts. Thread is like Spotify for news. It's an ad-free news and podcasts app that's built to complement your routine – not take over your life. Every day we round up the ten best articles from your favorite blogs, publications, and sources and deliver them to you in a single push notification at a time you choose. It's a quick, digestible news playlist crafted just for you, delivered when you want it. You can also browse featured and recommended articles, search for shows, topics, and sources, and share what you're reading and listening to with friends, groups, and followers. (We want to encourage healthy conversations on Thread so like and follower counts are always hidden and reactions and replies are private.) We'll be on here all day so send us your questions, comments, and feedback, and thanks for checking out Thread! Nick

A powerful new way to engage with the news. I love it!
