I'm not sure if your comment applies to Threads but if it does, and why not given the short time to launch, that Threads MVP had 100 M app downloads in the first 5 months.
It's 4 orders of magnitude more than any customer of mine got in all the lifetime of any of their products. It's one order of magnitude more than what the mobile phone operator I was working for 20 years ago had after years from launch.
I guess that it means that an MVP is all we need. OK, they started with the Instagram code base but as you write, the core of the product is a pretty standard exercise. I did it a few times myself for some customers along the years, Rails and PHP.

Irrelevant. I'm talking about the feature set, which is not determined by the volume of clients being downloaded.

The clients need content. The business, in order to make money, needs way more than that.
