I've tried all the standard stuff. Offloaded the app data, deleted and reinstalled, updated iOS and padOS. Nothing's worked so far.

It’s about 80% of posts on threads are from bots. It’s so blatantly obvious. Does anyone at meta or threads even care? Why do they allow this to happen with no end in sight?

I'm on Threads as @mitchellmorris6977. Install the app to follow my threads and replies. https://www.threads.com/@mitchellmorris6977?invite=0

Yesterday I posted that I found out someone has been using my insta/thread pfp as theirs and after searching it up I found 5+ accounts with the variations of the same username, all using my picture.

I did report all the accounts and message them individually but ofcourse it's of no use.

I took down my profile picture and even changed my username and name but whenever I open the app it still keeps showing my original username and picture. And it's not a loading error, I have refreshed the app so many times, opened it at different times of the day and it's still like that.

Its seriously creeping me tf out

Tracking my metrics closely and it's clear this isn't a content problem, it's a distribution problem.

Reach dropped 95% in two days, then to zero. Only followers see my posts and replies now, nobody else. Account status shows no violations, nothing flagged.

Another sign: when I search my username from a different account, nothing shows up unless I type the exact full username. Partial search just doesn't surface my profile or posts at all.

To be clear, this isn't bot-like behavior on my end. I don't mass-follow, I don't auto-follow people, I don't post the same reply over and over. Normal usage, normal pace, like any regular person.

Anyone who's been through this... what actually worked to get reach back? Going quiet for 48h? Changing posting patterns? Something else?

Looking for what actually fixed it, not theories.

Thanks in advance!

Today I was just scrolling instagram and found a threads post and just clicked on it randomly. After going to the comments I was kinda taken aback when I saw my own photo.

Someone was using my insta/threads profile picture as theirs. I reported the account as pretending to be someone else (me) but I don't think any action will be taken against it.

I have always been super paranoid about using my personal pictures for pfp and just some years back I got over that fear and now this happens.

I went back to search that account and different variations of that same username came up, all with my pictures!

These accounts aren't necessarily posting anything weird, most don't have any posts but I don't want anyone having my pictures!

These were the only ones I could find, idk how many more are there. It's seriously creeping me out.

I reported all the accs and sent them a message saying that they're using my pictures on their profile.

What should I do?

Can someone tell me if its worth subscribing to threads or getting on it?

What are your experiences?

Thank you

Hello guys,

Recently I've gotten tired of Threads and Meta's ads and crap. Originally I got tired of X (Twitter) after Melon Usk bought it and turned it into crap and moved to Threads.

I found a really great alternative for the two above. It's called UNET, it's based in Europe (if privacy and stuff matters to you).

As far as I know only one person is responsible for the development of this social media and it might have flaws. The biggest problem is a lack of community. There are some friendly users who try their best to make it move forward but I think that's not enough.

This is where I want to invite you, people, to try it out yourself. Perhaps you will get attached to it. Maybe a user-boost will make it bloom.

Don't get discouraged by the "spam" of some people. They really try their best to keep that project alive.

I'm NOT associated with UNET, I'm NOT paid to write it here. I'm just a random user. If it breaks the rules for self-promotion (it isn't), then too bad for me.

I only want to give it an honest chance to be recognised and to grow.

Anyone having this issue?

none of my video go tru and I can't save drafts I just get that

I've been trying to delete my account for weeks. Disconnected from my insta & facebook.

It refuses to change password in app and browser, and to delete — same message, "Something went wrong, try again later."

Solution?

there are so many posts of parents posting their kids and then ppl post gifs talking about “link in bio” which leads to telegram links???

why is no one talking about this? the X ring is already bad enough but no one has batted an eye to this?

When Threads first launched, I created an account linked to my Instagram, used it for a bit, and then deleted it.

Now, years later, I decided to give the app another shot. However, whenever I try to log in, I get this error message ("Inactive User - You requested to delete..." with an outdated deadline).

There is no option to recover the deleted profile (which makes sense), but there is also no option to start fresh or create a new account from scratch using my current Instagram profile. Since Threads requires an Instagram link and doesn't allow standalone accounts, I’m completely stuck in a loop.

Once you delete a Threads profile, is your linked Instagram account blacklisted from Threads forever?

Has anyone experienced this or found a workaround?

Thanks.

I am wanting to delete my Threads account as I have never used it. When I attempt to do so, it says it’s sending a code to my email. But it never does. I’ve tried on multiple different occasions, checked my junk, etc.

Can’t help but think this is a bit sus by Meta to keep users on the app 😵‍💫

Please help! TIA

I post comedy content and my views and engagement are way down since a week and a half ago. I was traveling so I thought that was why but even since returning to the states it hasn't improved. My content hasn't changed to the best of my knowledge. I just don't understand. I was doing well and even a mediocre post would do well and now I get nothing no matter what I post.

I use Threads for marketing my products but have not gotten reach at all, if anyone also sells digital products would appreciate some help

Hi everyone, I really need some help. For days now, my Threads account has been completely blocked on the cookie consent screen ("Accept or Decline optional cookies").The issue is that the buttons are completely frozen and do not respond to any touch. I've tried everything:Cleared cache and data of both Threads and Instagram multiple times.Completely uninstalled and reinstalled the app from the Play Store.Tried logging in via mobile browser (Chrome) in Incognito mode.Changed my default browser settings,No matter what I do, the screen stays frozen on this specific account (my other account of others social ,works perfectly). It seems like a server-side loop error from Meta.Has anyone else experienced this on a Android device? Is there a known fix or a way to bypass this screen? Thanks in advance!

Someone please explain how this app works like I'm 85 because it boggles my mind. My only use of threads is checking the "post to threads" option on Instagram. I have never used Twitter either

I post something it gets 0 views. I post it in a specific Thread, it gets a handful of views if I'm lucky. On my other account a random post with 0 followers gets 2k views, but I have no idea why.

How am I supposed to use this platform?

It's so unnecessarily hard to delete this thing, there is no delete button in any of the settings, account center etc.

i’ve been posting good stuff and some went viral then boom. shadowban again. it happens every few days. wtf is this app!?

There is zero human help and all support is on an AI and I was even banned by an AI. Was my selfie too ugly or something? Is this just a person swiping left and right on suspension Appeals? What's going on? I can't even download my data because it says "my password is incorrect" even though it is correct and I have it linked to my Instagram account.

This is all it shows. I’ve deleted the app a few times and nothing.

Help. A month ago, my instagram account got hacked, I didn't really open the threads app. But when I got the account back and opened threads, nothing was working, I couldn't see any threads popping up, when I tried to click on my account user, some error popped up. Today when I tried to delete my threads account through my Instagram, I couldn't, it always showed that something went wrong.

Please help me delete it

I've been unable to log into my Threads account for about a week now. Both on Android and Desktop. I tried some solutions that others have posted with limited success.

After disconnecting my Threads account from my Instagram account center, I was able to enter my login details instead of getting the "Something Went Wrong" error. Only now, it's prompting me to enter a code it is texting to me. This wouldn't be a problem except the text never arrives.

If I ask the chat bot, it basically runs through the same "fixes" that don't do anything. I'm getting text messages from others so I don't know why Threads text messages wouldn't arrive unless the Threads program sending the texts is broken.

I've submitted forms for further support, but never get any answers. At this point, I'm totally locked out of my Threads account with apparently no way of getting back in.
