Threads rolls out new search option in move to take on Bluesky

Threads, a social media microblogging service operated by Meta Platforms, has rolled out a more advanced way to search for specific posts in a move to take on Bluesky.

The app, which is based on Instagram’s social graph and provides a Meta-run substitute for Elon Musk’s X, is introducing a new feature that lets users search for certain posts by date ranges and user profiles.

However, the new function isn’t as extensive as X’s advanced search, which now allows users to refine their queries by hashtags, excluded terms, language, keywords, exact phrases, and more.
