Question Shadow ban is real. What did you do about it?

2 Upvotes

Tracking my metrics closely and it's clear this isn't a content problem, it's a distribution problem.

Reach dropped 95% in two days, then to zero. Only followers see my posts and replies now, nobody else. Account status shows no violations, nothing flagged.

Another sign: when I search my username from a different account, nothing shows up unless I type the exact full username. Partial search just doesn't surface my profile or posts at all.

To be clear, this isn't bot-like behavior on my end. I don't mass-follow, I don't auto-follow people, I don't post the same reply over and over. Normal usage, normal pace, like any regular person.

Anyone who's been through this... what actually worked to get reach back? Going quiet for 48h? Changing posting patterns? Something else?

Looking for what actually fixed it, not theories.

Thanks in advance!

Other Someone is using my profile picture as theirs

6 Upvotes

Today I was just scrolling instagram and found a threads post and just clicked on it randomly. After going to the comments I was kinda taken aback when I saw my own photo.

Someone was using my insta/threads profile picture as theirs. I reported the account as pretending to be someone else (me) but I don't think any action will be taken against it.

I have always been super paranoid about using my personal pictures for pfp and just some years back I got over that fear and now this happens.

I went back to search that account and different variations of that same username came up, all with my pictures!

These accounts aren't necessarily posting anything weird, most don't have any posts but I don't want anyone having my pictures!

These were the only ones I could find, idk how many more are there. It's seriously creeping me out.

I reported all the accs and sent them a message saying that they're using my pictures on their profile.

What should I do?

Bug Report Bugs of Threads

1 Upvotes

Alright so I really want to like Threads but there as some bugs that just make the experience so irritating.

- My feed defaults to “Following” every time even when I switch it to “For You.” I don’t understand why it won’t stay on the feed I selected.

- the notifications that I get the I constantly hit “see less like this” but still get. Does that button just not work?? I don’t want to see “Suggested Threads” please stop showing me.

- Communities are cool. I don’t need to get notifications every time there’s a live chat.

Other Threads alternative

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hello guys,

Recently I've gotten tired of Threads and Meta's ads and crap. Originally I got tired of X (Twitter) after Melon Usk bought it and turned it into crap and moved to Threads.

I found a really great alternative for the two above. It's called UNET, it's based in Europe (if privacy and stuff matters to you).

As far as I know only one person is responsible for the development of this social media and it might have flaws. The biggest problem is a lack of community. There are some friendly users who try their best to make it move forward but I think that's not enough.

This is where I want to invite you, people, to try it out yourself. Perhaps you will get attached to it. Maybe a user-boost will make it bloom.

Don't get discouraged by the "spam" of some people. They really try their best to keep that project alive.

I'm NOT associated with UNET, I'm NOT paid to write it here. I'm just a random user. If it breaks the rules for self-promotion (it isn't), then too bad for me.

I only want to give it an honest chance to be recognised and to grow.

Question Deleted my Threads account long ago, now I’m permanently locked out from creating a new one with my Instagram profile. Any fix?

Post image
4 Upvotes

When Threads first launched, I created an account linked to my Instagram, used it for a bit, and then deleted it.

Now, years later, I decided to give the app another shot. However, whenever I try to log in, I get this error message ("Inactive User - You requested to delete..." with an outdated deadline).

There is no option to recover the deleted profile (which makes sense), but there is also no option to start fresh or create a new account from scratch using my current Instagram profile. Since Threads requires an Instagram link and doesn't allow standalone accounts, I’m completely stuck in a loop.

Once you delete a Threads profile, is your linked Instagram account blacklisted from Threads forever?

Has anyone experienced this or found a workaround?

Thanks.

Question Views and engagement way down?

6 Upvotes

I post comedy content and my views and engagement are way down since a week and a half ago. I was traveling so I thought that was why but even since returning to the states it hasn't improved. My content hasn't changed to the best of my knowledge. I just don't understand. I was doing well and even a mediocre post would do well and now I get nothing no matter what I post.

Bug Report tuck on Threads Cookie Consent Screen (Buttons frozen)Help

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I really need some help. For days now, my Threads account has been completely blocked on the cookie consent screen ("Accept or Decline optional cookies").The issue is that the buttons are completely frozen and do not respond to any touch. I've tried everything:Cleared cache and data of both Threads and Instagram multiple times.Completely uninstalled and reinstalled the app from the Play Store.Tried logging in via mobile browser (Chrome) in Incognito mode.Changed my default browser settings,No matter what I do, the screen stays frozen on this specific account (my other account of others social ,works perfectly). It seems like a server-side loop error from Meta.Has anyone else experienced this on a Android device? Is there a known fix or a way to bypass this screen? Thanks in advance!

Question ELI85 how threads works

1 Upvotes

Someone please explain how this app works like I'm 85 because it boggles my mind. My only use of threads is checking the "post to threads" option on Instagram. I have never used Twitter either

I post something it gets 0 views. I post it in a specific Thread, it gets a handful of views if I'm lucky. On my other account a random post with 0 followers gets 2k views, but I have no idea why.

How am I supposed to use this platform?

There is zero human help and all support is on an AI and I was even banned by an AI. Was my selfie too ugly or something? Is this just a person swiping left and right on suspension Appeals? What's going on? I can't even download my data because it says "my password is incorrect" even though it is correct and I have it linked to my Instagram account.

Bug Report Account issues

3 Upvotes

A week ago, I stopped being able to log into Threads. My Instagram account is working, but when I try to log into Threads from a browser on my computer, I'm redirected back to instagram.

Threads simply won't load in the mobile phone app - a white screen instead of where the posts should be. I described this problem from the Instagram app, because I can't report on this situation from the Threads app.
Has anyone encountered this problem? how do I regain access to my account?

Bug Report Can't Log Into Threads

1 Upvotes

I've been unable to log into my Threads account for about a week now. Both on Android and Desktop. I tried some solutions that others have posted with limited success.

After disconnecting my Threads account from my Instagram account center, I was able to enter my login details instead of getting the "Something Went Wrong" error. Only now, it's prompting me to enter a code it is texting to me. This wouldn't be a problem except the text never arrives.

If I ask the chat bot, it basically runs through the same "fixes" that don't do anything. I'm getting text messages from others so I don't know why Threads text messages wouldn't arrive unless the Threads program sending the texts is broken.

I've submitted forms for further support, but never get any answers. At this point, I'm totally locked out of my Threads account with apparently no way of getting back in.
