Threads is nice and all, but wouldn’t it be cool if we could, you know, organize the posts in some meaningful way?

Worry not, a better way to tread through Threads (sorry) may be coming. Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg shared an upcoming feature, currently in testing: multi-column view.

Those of you who remember TweetDeck, one of the best third-party Twitter (now X) clients that was acquired by Twitter and hidden behind a paywall, know just how powerful a short-form social media site can be when you have an option to view multiple topics/lists as columns, especially on a big display.

Mashable Light Speed

Now, Threads is doing something similar on the web. Zuckerberg didn’t give a lot of details, but the screenshot he shared shows a TweetDeck-like multi-column view with one column displaying the default, For You posts, and the other three showing posts related to certain topics such as “pickleball,” “workout,” or “surfing.”

There’s no word on how widely accessible the test is, or when the feature may launch properly, but it’s nice to see given how empty Threads looks when viewed on a large-resolution display, which is most home monitors these days.

Also, given that Threads currently has no paid tier, it’s likely that the multi-column view on Threads will be free. This certainly beats Twitter, which is asking for $8 a month in order to access the multi-column view feature
