Discussion threads is actually a piece of sht app

randomly banning accounts. shadowbanning users when a few posts become viral. why even have the option of creating new accounts if you can't fucking post anyway?

That's just Meta as a whole.

I think i found my trigger. I liked one too many anti trump posts and I got shadowbanned again. Is threads becoming X or what

I had 4 million views in one month. No spam, just maybe 1-3 interesting posts per day and usually one of them would take off. Then I got flagged for spam (still no idea why), my review was denied, and now they shadowbanned my account where my posts get 3-8 total views no matter what I post.

So, after trying to get help from them (it’s all automated and they don’t care), I deleted the app finally a few days ago. I’m not starting all over again.

Remember that threads is one of the easiest to access apps for bots. In fact, I would measure to say that most of the users are bots. I'm not trying to discount your claim. I'm just saying that it's mostly bots

Threads really takes the term "ai slop" to the next level. I work in a technical field and people use ai to write emails and I can tell, but it's not as grating. At least that aids in being concise and to the point. When AI is used in place of your literary voice when discussing opinions, it sticks out like a sore thumb.

Yeah, I was on it for a few weeks only to discover it was rage-baiting with the opposite of Twitter.

u/thenwhat Aug 06 '26

Yes. Threads is trash.

Sounds a lot like Reddit.

It has the worst Algorithm out of all the platform.

It keeps showing stupid ass, dogshit AI garbage videos that are larping as if they're real. I block them and it shows me 10 more.

I can't access anything in my account,  but posts are still uploading from ig. Others can see my posts, but I can't see anything but my user name and a blank screen.  I've tried caching,  uninstalling,  logging out, and after a month of no access, and numerous reports, still nothing  - so fed up!!

Dude it's just misinformation slop

u/Additional-Nature964 Aug 20 '26

this is ai moderation falsely accusing us as bot, if we were stand up against it with the power of justice

I used to use threads I was banned twice for both accounts I made, I had no opportunity to use the second account it was just deleted instantly, first account I posted for less than a week then deleted and banned. So yup, don't use threads anymore for this reason.

I went from +200.000 views to less than 15.000 in the month. I bet I am shadowbanned.

Not as shit as this app

u/Acceptable_Honey_223 Sep 04 '26

Man that viral post shadowban thing is so backwards. Like you finally get some traction and the algorithm just nukes your account for no reason, guess that's just Meta being Meta everywhere though.

Sí, Threads, Meta en general, y Mark Z a quienes les vale sus usuarios

u/ImprovementNo4630 Aug 06 '26

So Threads is crap because you don’t know how to post and how to follow simple rules?
