Threads will become very popular in a bull market.
Leo Threads is a short-form content creation application/front-end on Hive. The project was initiated and managed by the same team behind the very popular Leofinance community and application.
Leo Threads or simply Threads, enables everyone with a Hive account to share short-form content about any topic called threads on the front-end. These threads are akin to what we all know as Tweets but unlike tweets that tend to be heavily censored worthless screams into an echo chamber, threads are subject to upvotes, and can't be censored like any other hive application.
Posting a 240-character thread is a very simple way to be active on Hive. Hive upvotes on threads aren't quite as large as traditional long-form blog posts but threads aren't quite as stressful to create.
What makes Leo Threads stand out from previous attempts to create short-form content on Hive is the fact that threads you share don't clog up your feeds like they would if you use D.buzz, for example. Thanks to the application of a very simple feature of Hive Blockchain, threads don't pop up in your feeds but are stored in a separate space that can easily be tracked on chain.
Put quite simply, all threads are recorded as comments on the Blockchain. However, it is important to note that to the wider internet space, there's no difference between a comment and a main blog post, so your threads are regarded as individual publications worldwide and are trackable worldwide.
Anyway, bringing Leo threads to life is yet another reason to be quite bullish about Hive's technology. The pumps will come and the dumps will go but your threads will forever be stored on the constantly evolving blockchain and you will never be censored for speaking your mind.
Bullish about threads
Allowing users to share short-form content on Hive has had numerous benefits and on top of the list, we have to truly appreciate how this feature has boosted engagement on the platform. @taskmaster4450 has talked about the importance of the network effect numerous times in the past and Leo threads will benefit from it.
Unlike long-form content that requires a lot more time to consume, threads take only a few seconds to process and responding to them also takes as little time. This means that while activity level might have dropped across Hive because of the bear market, threads has still been a busy place to interact with Hive users.
Naturally, everything you share on Hive blockchain is subject to upvotes from people that appreciate your content. On threads, you have the extra benefit of being able to earn both Hive and leo tokens.
At the time of writing, Leo still trades at around 5 cents, so low levels of optimism is expected. However, all of that could change if a bull market comes around; can you imagine how much you could earn from sharing threads if the price of Leo is $3 or something? Crazy, I know.
We've spent so much time wallowing in the deep end of the bear market, it is hard to even mentally conceive bullish times. However, it is in these times you build and prepare for the future, and with the little Leo and Hive you earn from sharing on threads, you could be setting yourself up for a prosperous bull market when it comes around.
In Summary
Threads is still a relatively new platform/feature on the Hive blockchain and for now, we're still a narrow corridor of familiar faces interacting with each other. Virtually every social media platform started this way until they blew up, so all we need to do is exercise patience.
One thing that could dramatically improve the engagement level on threads will be a bull market. First of all, it will mean that you earn a lot more from sharing and secondly, this could also mean more funds for the leofinance team to promote the project and get an even better reach.
As things are now, Leo Threads is serving its purpose on the Hive blockchain. As more people hear about it, the project will continue to expand to absorb the masses thanks to the available resources on the Hive blockchain and all you need to access this feature is a free hive account that you can easily create on Leofinance.

I would personally love to see a few more UI tweaks, better content discovery and the ability to only see posts from people that I follow.
Apart from that I agree with you completely. There is a ton of potential lying in threads and they are already 10x better than Dbuzz IMO.

One bull market @khaleelkazi and the Leofinance mad scientist will cook up some of these updates.
@jongolson designed veews and that could be a nice way to improve content discovery.
Leo Threads is definitely a game changer on hive. Combining micro blogging and finance - what a concept! The fact that it does not show up on the main blog is really cool too. I just started to explore this feature and I am loving it. Definitely, the future is being built on Hive!
