Instagram (NASDAQ:META) is reportedly preparing its own rival to Twitter (TWTR), taking advantage of a tumultuous time at the short-text app months into the leadership of Elon Musk.
The Meta Platforms unit is currently testing a text-based app, separate from its main Instagram app, with plans to release it as soon as June, Bloomberg reported.

The new app is currently under test with celebrities and influencers, and has been secretly available to some creators for months, according to the report.
While it's separate from Instagram proper, it's said to allow people to connect to their Instagram account, and might eventually be compatible with other Twitter rivals like Mastodon.
