Meta’s new Threads app is closely linked to Instagram, so much so that you can’t delete your Threads profile without deleting your Instagram account.
-
This is mentioned clearly in Meta’s supplemental privacy policy, which many new Threads users failed to read in full.
I’m one of those suckers who installed it to try out, but uninstalled just as quickly.
Not a single tweet or anything.
But i guess now my account is stuck there.
Or just delete your instagram account and join pixelfed instead.
There isn’t an iOS app at the moment. I tried searching on app Store. Didn’t find any.
Plus i need to be on at least one social media to be in touch with friends. I already don’t have facebook or twitter.
There is one but it’s still in TestFlight. I believe it’s supposed to be out officially by the end of the month but apple may be giving them issues. Toot from the developers
Ah. Didn’t know that. I’ll check it out once it’s stable.
There is an iOS app. It’s called vernissage. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/vernissage-for-pixelfed/id1663543216
Thanks. I’ll check it out.
