100 million isn't that much when it comes to Meta. There's over 2 billion "active" Instagram users that all were prompted to download the app. That means only 0.005% of Instagram accounts fell for it.
I have no doubt that at least that many people tried it out. When I went to the Android App store, Meta was paying for a front and center promotion of Threads.
Your maths is a little off there: 100m is 5%
IT'S JUST A FEW DECIMAL PLACES GIVE ME A BREAK 😆
What’s a few decimal places among friends, right?
while you're correct based on instagram's numbers, the other commenter would be correct if it was a British billion which is a million millions. just a fun fact 🦄
That's true, although the long scale billion hasn't been a thing even in Britain for decades.
If it's fun facts you like, try this: English is the clear odd one out, most other languages use milliard for 10^9 and billion for 10^12.
milliard - love it ty for that. Reminds me of: French: L'ananas Italian: L'ananas Icelandic: Ananas Portuguese: O ananás Swedish: Ananas German: Die Ananas
Eh... Check your math...
Right? Seems like he is off by a couple digits, unless we are missing something
where have you found 2x10^12 people
Well, technically... they said "users", not "people". Maybe there are 2E12-1E8 bots... 🙃
