GhostalmediaMeta Threads engagement has dropped 50% in a week
krigo666“Last week, the text-based social media platform reported a record 100 million sign-ups in just five days.”
LOL The biggest bullshit of the year… Meta just created shadow accounts of all Instagram users, without their knowledge or consent…
MasterIs there a way to check if a user account exists for my instagram account without logging in?
people reported already having followers before ever using the platform, meaning all people automatically had an account created for them. thats also very legally problematic in the EU which is why the service isnt avaiable here.
It’s not hard to understand what was happening.
- I follow Person A and Person A follows me on Instagram
- Person A signs up for Threads before me
- I sign up for Threads after
- Because we already follow each other on Instagram, Threads automatically made Person A follow me
The issue with the EU is you can’t mingle and mix user data from two separate services.
Seem pretty easy to work around, just call it extension of the earlier service. You just added a new feature.
Sole benefit of Brexit identified. We get to hand over our data to meta before you guys. It’s all been worth it.
“An account was already created for them” because it’s the same Meta account. You can just follow people when you start your account without them necessarily activating threads.
I saw this in browser: You can go the person Instagram account and see if they have a thread logo next to it.
