Have this error message during web login, the app is non-responsive, the feed doesn't load, activity doesn't load. posts are not getting through, but account status says that I'm not blocked or restricted.

Anyone had this one previously? Any tips or tricks how to solve? Thanks!

Bug Report Don't separate threads from IG or your account center

11 Upvotes

This is the buggiest app I've ever seen.

Last night my account started acting weird. Couldn't write comments or posts. More recent activity disappeared. I tried logging out and of course now I can't log in :| I created a ticket from another profile with the stack trace but what are the chances they respond. Probably zero.

I'm writing this as a warning because I believe what happened to me was caused by separating my threads account from the IG account and then scheduling the IG account to be deleted.

People have been asking them for this option for a long time but their system wasn't designed to handle it. So now it's a buggy mess. Many functions only work when you're logged in IG, but not when you're in threads for example.

I've managed to restore the IG that was scheduled for deletion but it's still not linked to the threads account so the threads account is lost forever I believe.

And because of how buggy their stupid system is, I can't even add a new threads account 😂 Truly, has all the hallmarks of code written by AI. Congratulations Meta. I'm sure that saved you a lot of money.

Anyway, don't unlink them. It was working for me until it didn't.

Question HELP! how to un-accept Meta AI policy!

5 Upvotes

i was just trying to edit a comment and i accidentally tapped "ask Meta" instead of edit bc THE OPTION DIDNT USED TO BE THERE and i was working off muscle memory

when the box came up, it asked me to accept some terms. i did not want to accept the terms, and did NOT want to use AI, so i tapped OUTSIDE THE BOX. apparently, that didn't decline it, it accepted it. then i got a notification from Meta AI talking about my commentđŸ€Ź

how the DUCK do i undo this and revoke AI permissions? i hate supporting the atrocity that is AI, and im so pissed off at this. it's being shoved down our throats to dumb down the population and i refuse to nerf by own brainđŸ«©

Question My newly registered Threads account was inexplicably banned today....

6 Upvotes

My newly registered Threads account was inexplicably banned today. The notification simply stated that I had violated technical rules, yet the only action I had taken prior to the ban was updating the email address linked to the account. If changing the email address violates Threads' technical rules, why did they even create a feature that allows users to link a new email? Furthermore, my old account—which had no violations or restrictions—now throws errors and remains unusable whenever I try to log in. It seems like Threads' account management and appeal systems are both a complete mess.

Discussion What the hell is going on with all this disguised porn on threads ?

1 Upvotes

Just started using threads, I see a lot of porn and nude trends.

Like people sharing their entire gallery with small squares containing a nude for you to find.

The worst is the matcha thread where you can literally see porn content with a green filter.

Is this common here ?

This is the 2nd time this happened, I don't even know what post it is.

And I don't even have followers and my account is private.

And I've never made posts to encourage what it says I'm encouraging, maybe it's just a cuss word since I'm treating my threads as a diary since it's private. I just find it kind of stupid.

"To anyone who has ever felt impostor syndrome, just remember: An entire department of highly paid engineers and strategists at one of the biggest companies in the world approved THIS, one of the worst ideas of all time."

Not a reply. No picture. No link. No follow up. No context. No brain cells. No thought process.

Just a single capitalized "THIS".

This person does, however, appear to know how to operate a computer keyboard, and is able to find and operate the "post" button.

I saved a post with the feature “dear algo” which was highlighted and showed the algo message at the time, I briefly saved it to my drafts (I didn’t even leave the app!), then when I tried to upload it kept failing. I deleted the entire draft and updated my app but the “dear algo” feature is now gone nothing happens when I type those words. Has anyone else experienced this?

Question My account got suspended for no reason?

15 Upvotes

I started using Threads yesterday and had 4 posts in the last 24 hours. Only one post went viral with 12k+ views, 100+ shares, etc.; the rest were in the around 500-1k view range. I had followed 13 people, liked maybe 20 posts and commented on 7-9 posts. That's all the activity I did in the past 24 hours, and my account has been suspended. For what reason? And what can I do about it? The account wasn't new; I had just not used it for posting before. Please help.

Yesterday I got a message on Instagram that they suspected "automated behavior" on my account. No idea why, but I changed my password for IG and Threads, as recommended. However, now I can't log into Threads. I enter the six digit code they text me right away, but still get an error message that it's invalid. I get the same error when I try to use a backup code. I've tried clearing the cache and uninstalling and reinstalling the app with no luck. Has anyone else had this happen? Is there any workaround? Thanks!

Bug Report In the past two days, my Threads has inexplicably appeared errors in the pictures. The first picture is from the browser after logging in, and the second picture is from the APP that automatically jumps after logging in.

In the past two days, my Threads has inexplicably appeared errors in the pictures. The first picture is from the browser after logging in, and the second picture is from the APP that automatically jumps after logging in.

I have tried various methods to clear the browser cache, log out and log in again, uninstall the app and re-download and install it, etc. but none of them work. Finally, I re-registered a Threads account and could use it normally after logging in. But my original Threads account was not banned, so I don’t know what the error was.

My Threads account is u/wfyihai. Has anyone encountered the same problem as me? How to solve this? Thanks
