Threads finally brings messaging to the web

Threads is rolling out messaging on the web, bringing one-on-one and group chats to desktop, the Meta-owned social network announced on Tuesday. By bringing messaging to the web, Threads is aligning its desktop experience more closely with competitors like X and Bluesky.

Connor Hayes, Meta’s head of Threads, said in a post that web messaging was the most requested feature from users after the company first introduced DMs in July 2025.
