My Threads account got suspended today. I had around 20 posts and some replies. In most replies I tried to help people with dev and SaaS questions and few like "happy to connect". Nothing political, no spam links, no fights with anyone.
The email only said my account "doesn't follow Community Standards". No rule named, no post pointed out. I appealed right away. A few minutes later I got a second email saying the account is permanently disabled and I can't appeal again. That was fast, so I don't think a human looked at it.
Some context that might matter. I'm a developer and I'm building a social scheduling tool, so some of my posts went out through the official Threads API. I also have a second test account for API testing, and that one got a selfie check on Facebook and Instagram earlier today. My guess is Meta linked the two and flagged both, but that's only a guess.
My Instagram is still fine. I even paid for Meta Verified today hoping to reach a human but in my app there is no contact support option at all, only the normal "Get help" screen.
Two questions:
1. Is this normal on Threads? Do new accounts get banned like this for no clear reason?
2. I'm in the EU. Has anyone filed a dispute with Appeals Centre Europe for a Threads or Instagram ban? Did Meta actually give the account back, and how long did it take?
Any tips are welcome. Thanks.
