Summary

The Threads team continues to add features, and this one is important - being able to send DMs from your laptop (or desktop). Now you finally can! Also the Edits team has some new features, including one called "Fuse" that I really like, and we get into Edits features to help you with your workflow. Lastly the YouTube Creator Insider team interviews Adam Savage from the TV show "Mythbusters" all about his strategy.
