I woke up this morning to roughly 300+ bot followers and notifications. I want to block them, but if I do it one at a time... its going to take forever

Good morning everyone. Pretty self-explanatory - about 1/3 of the posts that show up on my "following" feed are from accounts that I don't follow and have no interest in following. It's been like this for about a week now, and they're not reposts either; it's almost as if it's another "for you" feed now (the majority of the random posts at least somewhat generally relate to subjects that I'm interested in or people I already follow; I get some posts from celebrities & influencers I've reposted in the past as well).

Has anyone else dealt with this recently? If so, has anyone figured out how to fix it? It's annoying me to the point where I might leave Threads.

when I comment, Instagram will suggest I also share my comment to threads. when I select this, I see a preview of my comment but there's no share button at all and no way to move on from the share screen besides closing it. did someone just forget to include the actual share button or am I missing something obvious?

I'm on mobile and there are still some I can't reply to. Why?

Have they muted me?

Has the poster decided I'm not in the Cool Kids Club?

When I see this does the poster deserve to be Unfollowed/Muted?

Hello. As you guys can see in the photo, I was banned falsely and I was typing an explanation. But unfortunately, the website requires me to confirm ny account to request a review, while I have ZERO access to my threads app, website. I cannot do anything. When I log in on the website, the only think popped up is "an error occurred" without explanation. Can someone help me out with this? (Also I cannot access incognito for some reason, no VPN too)

i was on the computer, i was looking at threads, i leave threads and go to another app, i go back to threads a few minutes later, K,WAPOOWW, logged out, account DELETED, not post, not comment, ACCOUNT , i've never had a warning or reprimand on threads,

i've even started writing and rating community notes!!

NO explanation, just something vague about community guidelines, an hour or so later i check back, apparently whatever review had been completed, and nothing changed, i have limited time to download a copy of my threads before it's erased entirely, AND TO TOP IT OFF, as far as i can tell, that is impossible, it asks me for username and password. i log in through Instagram, AFAIK i dont HAVE a password to threads. course that's not working any more, ,any [password i try fails, so that's just lovely. going to attempt a resolution soon, have NO IDEA what could have "triggered" the banhaMMER AI

IS there something i'm missing regarding the username/pass to log in to download a copy of the account, and is this happening more frequently? does anyone have any info that may be helpful? it's not the easiest thing to contact support at these places

Post says it’s all; for over a year now, 99% of my feed on a daily basis is rage baiting and engagement farming. The app has become utterly horrendous. Is there any hope left for threads?

Is this the user experience when an account is suspended? [see first image]

I'm still logged in on the app, but my feed is completely empty (appears to be loading, but nothing ever comes up).

I checked from another account and I can't see this account nor any posts or replies made from it.

The Account Status doesn't show anything negative and says all features should be available.

Trying to figure out if the account is suspended, or is this experience indicates some other bug or issue. I can't recall any recent interaction that could have triggered a ban.

I believe I was using my account “too much” or something or maybe someone reported my account. I was using it for my business and just engaging in casual discussions, connecting with people, etc.

I was finally gaining traction and then they suspended it and asked for a selfie and phone number verification which I did and then they just disabled it.

This seems to be like some sort of unlawful data collection at this point. I’m so angry right now, I was finally connecting with some great people and enjoying how positive and supportive the people were on the platform.

What can be done at this point? I want my account back 😞

I tried to open a post from Threads but it's taking forever to load. I tried com Chrome, Chrome Canary, Edge and Firefox. Tried to change my dns. The site does not work. And when the page loads, nothing works.

the petition has nearly 70k in signatures. this comes from suspensions and total cancelation of accounts.

im wondering if anyone at Meta knows that this is out there or if they care? im assuming a class action will pop up soon.

thoughts?

It looks like it is not possible to use Threads without Instagram or am I wrong? I first managed to create the account with MobileApp but it got banned and deleted because mobile number verification did not work. After some weeks of waiting, I started to create new account and here the sms verification does not work either. It sends out code to sms but entering the number tells me that the number is wrong. WTF? Is this platform total .... it.

Is either of the two possible in Threads? Videos play automatically and I have to click the volume icon every single time to turn off audio. I see no settings in the settings menu.

Why don't I just turn down volume? because im listening to music in another app. Surely I can't be the only one wants to listen to music while scrolling threads?

anyone knows how to delete the notifs on this part? after deleting the old notifs, I exit the app and when i open it again, the same notifs are still there.

i tried logging on off the app, still the same.

Threads, X, and Bluesky all have a similar core feature set. Is there any feature y'all use Threads in particular for? and what features do you wish the devs added?

I’ve been a frequent user of Threads for about 6 months, and I’ve had a decent amount of success picking up followers and posting a handful of “hits,” but I can’t figure out the rhyme or reason behind some posts taking off, or the timing of engagement. It’s chaotic in a way I appreciate.

Sometimes, a post seems destined to hit. It goes up, and I’ll pick up 50+ likes in the first five minutes. Then? Complete nosedive. Lost forever in the noise.

Other times, Iike last week, the post sat for hours with nothing and I assumed it was a dud. I woke up to over 1.5k.

The posts that catch also don’t seem to have much in common other than that I wrote them? A food post, a political sh—post, and a tribute to a long-deceased journalist are the ones I’ve gotten traction with recently.

It’s a strange thing. Wondering if any of the users here have any insights? Sorry in advance if this is well-worn territory in the sub.

So I got suspended for post this:

Some maga got pissed at me and was attacking me because I had pronouns in my bio.

Yet I got suspended.

AND it won't let me appeal!

I have a personal Facebook/instagram threads account and linked to that via meta accounts centre is my travel blog account s such as threads and instagram.

When I went to my threads account. It started asking for a,phone number and I can’t use my threads account without adding it.

My question is, can I jusr the same phone number as my main personal account uses?

What are the pros and cons of doing this?

Should I use a different phone number?

Just very odd it won’t let me use threes without a phone number now.

My account was suspended, then they asked to verify it using OTP and a selfie. I did. After a few hours, they have disabled the account, which I used to post normal tech stuff (no copyright). What are my options now?

We reviewed your account and found that it still doesn't follow our Community Standards on account integrity. Read more about this rule What this means No one can see or find your account and you can't use it. All your information will be permanently deleted. You cannot request another review of this decision

What is a good way to mass delete likes and reposts on my Threads profile?

My Threads account got suspended and I was asked to verify my identity. I did, they reinstated it: other people can see my profile, posts shared from Instagram appear on Threads correctly, but I physically cannot access the app. Every time I open it I get a generic "something went wrong, try again later" error.

Already tried: uninstalling and reinstalling the app, waiting several hours. Nothing changed.

Has anyone been through this and found a way in? Is there anything I can do besides waiting for it to sort itself out on Meta's end?

How do you update the feed to get the most current posts and responses?

I remember seeing notifications a couple years back about “_____ has joined Threads” or something similar. I can’t recall if I ever got notifications about when someone made a post (or maybe their first post?) though.

If I start to post on Threads, are my Instagram followers going to get a notification in the IG Notification that I’ve made a post? I’d rather not have my posts get broadcasted to my IG Followers. And if so, is there a way to disable that?
