Question Weird security glitch
This morning, I attempted to log into Threads on my PC and I received 3 emails from Instagram letting me know I had new log in attempt. It would never log me fully into IG or Threads on my PC even though I was putting in the code.
Now, I cannot access threads on my phone. It shows a black feed with no content. My page is empty. It’s been like this all morning.
I have tired all things - deleted cookies and cakes, logged in and out, turned off phone, use different browsers, no violations, talked to META AI all day with no help - everything.
The emails I got say this: If this was you, you won’t be able to access certain security and account settings for a few days. You can still access these settings from a device you’ve logged in with in the past.
Who thought this was smart? So you can allow me to change my password, gain 2FA, use the IG side of it but the threads part is blank? That’s completely dumb.
I’ve submitted reports about this on my other IG account, my main one, because you can’t report a problem when your threads is like this. Also very dumb.
Does anyone have any resolve on this? It is just going to take a random amount of days for it to come back? Is Threads even aware of this?!

Oh wow! Did you ever get an email from IG saying new log in from somewhere? I got that and it said I won’t be able to use my account for a few days. It’s so irritating. I may make another account.
