"I’m on Threads" meta thread

['stache 21565]

SWIDT? Figure the ownership talk can be in the Elon thread. Thought we could discuss user experience, news, updates, interesting threads here in a separate place.

Do you need a face tron account?  I’ve never had one or Instagram.

Tied to Instagram, I think you need an Instagram account. Wonder if they’ll create a way to sign up for Threads by itself.

[Neonmoon 38126]

Just saw this 

“what’s your thread count”

lol

[Celery Man 20607]

How do?

[Lurch 5916]

SOOOOOOOO much better Follow experience than Mastadon

[Celery Man 20607]

Ok so it’s a separate app, not something you find in Instagram. Straightforward from there.

How is Threads handling verified accounts?

[Neonmoon 38126]

Yeah it’s listed as “Threads, an instagram app” on the App Store.

How do I just see the people I follow and not the mess of humanity that's on the page now?

It still needs work. 

[Lurch 5916]

Hint, from within instagram you can create a new, separate, account that will share your login but keep your identities unknowable by others. Ie, my instagram friends can’t see this other account I’m using for Threads

[Blotto 23286]

I didnt ever sign into twitter and I have avoided an instagram account to this point because fuck Zuckerberg and the mess he made out of old peoples brains. Can threads be embedded into other sites like twitter so I can just observe commentary? Since Meta is involved, I'm going to guess a login is required to get any functionality.

I’d guess it’s using Meta

[Celery Man 20607]

Ok and for me, Facebook and Instagram accounts are both my actual self . It seems if I want a threads account not associated with my actual identity where I can engage in internet cretin-ry I’ll need to create an additional Instagram account.

So I was able to click follow everyone from my Instagram and I’m getting notices when my follows sign on to threads. Going pretty quick. OSU is on now as are most of my local brewers, so far.

[Lurch 5916]

Does this work

Test.

Edit: I could never figure out embedding in the first place.

Yep see my comment above. They can be quietly connected

[Neonmoon 38126]

They need to add a way to copy links to Threads so they can be shared

I mean obviously this won’t work yet, esp since insta doesn’t embed either

[Brisketexan 103606]

I’m in, and opened it up. I was not inundated with posts from nekkid women based on my previous viewing history, as I have no such history on Threads. So, in my opinion, Threads is broken.

[Celery Man 20607]

who is baby gronk and where did he find this rizz?

[Clintonaldo 2437]

I have a buddy who wants to know how to view porn on Threads to jerk off? I think it’s totally pathetic but I told him I would ask.

What’s a single thread called?

A spool? A threet? A spun? A thread?

Insta can embed in some websites but there are some steps you need to take to do so. I doubt imma has done that yet. Even specific to the invision message board software, it looks doable

Whether or not that will apply to Threads is a different matter

Beats me, but Tom Brady is really Tom Brady, for instance.

It's a little crazy how fast content is already popping up on it. I kinda feel like this is how Instagram should have been in the first place.

 

Twitter right now.

Depends on how obvious they let it be that they know all your accounts on all the platforms

Meta keeps changing their shit. I need to. Do a few more things to get that working like do a business verification. However I'm not sure threads will work.
