Firebase public Task <T> addOnCompleteListener() method

I am confused with the differences between

public Task addOnCompleteListener(OnCompleteListener listener)

and

public Task addOnCompleteListener(Executor executor, OnCompleteListener listener)

in Android.

Attached here with the image of explanation from Firebase documentation.

From the explanation inside the documentation, the only difference between this two method is highlighted in the image. So what is the shared thread pool?

Thank you.

The difference is, in addOnCompleteListener(OnCompleteListener listener) the listener will be called on main thread and in addOnCompleteListener(Executor executor, OnCompleteListener listener), the Executor determines the thread that will be used to invoke the listener.

For more info, take a look at this great blog post.
