Hello, is anyone still here or have we all jumped ship and headed over to Threads? 📱 Asking for a friend.
Posts can be up to 500 characters long and include links, photos, and videos up to five minutes. You can share a Threads post to your Instagram story or share your post as a link on any other platform you choose.
You can control who can mention you or reply to you within Threads. Like on Instagram, you can add hidden words to filter out replies to your threads that contain specific words. The tech giant said it is taking safety ‘seriously’ and enforcing Instagram’s Community Guidelines on content and interactions in the app.Threads is Meta’s attempt at decentralisation, an approach it said will ‘play an important role in the future of online platforms’.
A decentralised app, on the other hand, would give user more control over their data and how it is used. It would also make it more difficult for Meta to censor content on the platform.
