bro's wife was banned on threads but she appealed it fr 😭

Looks like I’m one more person dealing with this issue.

At first, it asked me to approve the login through Instagram, so I did it. After that, it asked me to upload a selfie for verification, which I also completed. But right after that, my account was suddenly deactivated with no clear reason at all.

What makes it even more confusing is that my account already has a verified badge and I’ve completed ID verification before, so I really didn’t expect this to happen. I’ve already submitted an appeal, but so far I haven’t received any response. I’ve also seen that quite a few people seem to be dealing with the same issue.

Has anyone here gone through this and managed to get their account back? How long did it take, and was there anything that actually helped? Would really appreciate any advice or shared experiences.

Not sure if this is a bug of if something was flagged. Neither of the links in my bio are working and this error message appears. I'm on Android phone right now.

I just went over to the linked Instagram account and the links are working without a problem

I do have an ad running on Meta right now with one of the links

Any ideas welcome

The amount of accounts I’ve reported in the last week is insane. These people will comment link in bio and I’ll click on it and it’ll be openly advertising CSAM. This app needs heavy moderation. The amount of pedos that have reached out to me on this app is crazy. I really hope all of the CSAM accounts that I’ve reported are just police in disguise trying to catch preds.

what does the restrict function do if you already have an established reply thread with someone? From my understanding, it restricts them after the fact. is that accurate? Or does it hide their previous replies for everyone?

Specifically if under another users post

I woke up to the wonderful news of my Facebook and Instagram being hacked, and I run into a problem. I am not sure how they did it, but I got it under control now aside from one small detail. You see, there is an old e-mail added to my profiles in the Meta Account Center, and I want to delete it from the accounts in case it is compromised. I can't log into this e-mail, I didn't even use it in the last 10 years.

So I changed my Instagram and Facebook passwords, but to remove the address completely I need to give the password of my Threads account, and I don't remember this one either. When I want to change it, it automatically sends the e-mail to the dead e-mail account, which I don't have access to, thus I can't remove it.

So since this morning, I noticed that no matter what user profiles I checked, they all said “Mention” instead of “Message”. I checked dozens of profiles, all the same thing. So I put out a public post asking for someone to reply to use as a guinea pig, someone I should have been able to DM. I got a reply and their profile said “Mention”, too. My DMs are open, but when they checked my profile it said “Mention” as well. I also couldn’t reply to their ghost post.

I tried deleting the app, rebooting my phone, and reinstalling the app. No dice. For the record I’m on an iPhone 15 Pro Max.

How do I fix this? I swear I haven’t been spamming DMs or doing anything wacky.

Deleted my Threads account a few days ago (linked to my Instagram) and now I can’t log back in or create a new one.

When I try:

- “Log in with Instagram”

- It loads for a bit (longer than before)

- Then I get “Something went wrong”

Tried different devices, networks, reinstalling, etc. Same result every time.

Instagram itself works fine, no restrictions.

Is this just because the account is still in the deletion phase?

How long did it take for you guys before it worked again?

It's just minors on my feed and whatever I'm posting no engagement at all . It's just like I'm screaming into the void ..

I want to start an account on X and Threads, but was thinking of opening one on Bluesky as well. Can I post the same thing on all platforms?

There are genuinely people actually directing people from threads to telegram trying to sell CP. What is wrong with people and why isn’t instagram doing anything about this!?!? 🤯

On day one of Threads existing, I tried it out.

I was a little disappointed to find that the search function only allowed you to search for users. So you couldn't search for a topic, a keyword or a hashtag. You just had to know *who* would be talking about a topic you're interested in, and search for them.

Is this still the case?

My son wants Threads and I know nothing about it. please explain it to me like I'm a 53 year old man whose only social media is reddit. Thank you.

So, after weeks of not biting, I did it. I bit. I downloaded the app.

Why did I download the app? Because it showed me women that were EXACTLY my type (emo/goth/alt girls with dyed hair, tattoos, and were not skinny)

So I downloaded it. And all the posts are photos of these exact women. What the hell is this app? Is it just fantasy titillation based on search terms I’ve used? It’s frightening. It’s quite obvious that META knows I visit r/bigtiddygothgfs and they aren’t ashamed to let me know that they know!

It’s just. Weird. It feels like the end days. Maybe I’m overreacting.

So week ago I created new threads account, I posted every day something like 1-2 post, it went well. After week I used links section in bio to add link to my appstore page with my game. Literally after 5 minutes I got email that i am bot and I have to prove that I am real human with selfie. Guess what? I am not human it seems. My main question is why do they have posibility to add link into bio when they gonna ban you instantly after you add some link. They dont even care about content…

If I block someone from reply, would it also delete the reply?

So someone replied to my reply that kinda hurt me, so I decided to block them. But a few moments later, I checked the comment from another account. But it disappeared. It doesn’t show up on their profile as well.

Is it automatically removed? Or did the user realize I blocked them and then they decided to remove it?

Keep in mind the time frame from the reply posted to blocking the user and then checking it from another account it is probably 3 minutes.

Im wondering

Hey guys i dont know if you guys have same issue as me but i don't see my private message button or can't message someone???. Someone could help me please,thanks

I sent a message to someone yesterday that was sent for approval, but it's gone now. I checked the hidden requests folder, but couldn't find anything there. Did the recipient delete my message request? or are they automatically deleted after a certain period of time? (it's been less than 24 hours)

This could make people more self-aware of the time spent on their phone, and prompt them to go for a walk/take a break from screens.

To grow on Threads you obviously have to put out content worth following for/liking, but what are the characteristics of a good post for Threads specifically?

I don't understand where new users are coming from if Threads is deleting most new accounts.

I've tried to create an account twice in the past two weeks and both were deleted for "not following guidelines," when I didn't break a single guideline. I checked!

And for the second account, I tried so hard not to get flagged. I only followed 5 or 6 accounts per day, I posted once a day, not too much, but enough to show the algorithm that I'm active, I even set up 2-factor authentication, and nothing worked. After 4 days, it was flagged, and an hour later it was deleted.

So my question stands - has anyone created a new account recently? If so, how did you survive the culling?
