    Threads helps itself to an absurd amount of personal information. That, combined with the fact that you have to DELETE Instagram to fully delete your Threads account, is absolutely ridiculous.

    So far, I’ve yet to read a review that enthusiastically endorses Threads as a Twitter replacement. Caveats abound. This could have been truly significant, but in his greed, Zuck dropped the ball.

      TBF if you’re deleting threads for privacy reasons, you’d have to be a moron not to delete instagram too.

          Agreed. Meta and privacy are mutually exclusive. I don’t think Instagram users are particularly concerned/knowledgeable about privacy.
