There's a way to opt out... I did it six years ago. No regrets at all.
there's no way to opt out
Yes there is a way to opt out. Just opt out of Facebook and Meta products all together.
If not everyone using messenger, I would. I'm not using Facebook tho, but it doesn't help much
Everyone has an excuse but you've gotta start somewhere. There are probably hundreds of ways to message people and we would all survive if Meta and it's products vanished.
Sure there is... stop using Facebook.
I feel like if you’re still willing to use anything Meta has touched, you have no excuse to be surprised by this kind of thing.
I’m just surprised that people are surprised that meta will promote platform A (that they own) on platform B (that they own).
No way to opt out. How about leave
I stopped it by using this simple trick.
DELETED MY ACCOUNT AND THEN THE APP
Does that matter? Facebook, Insta and Threads are all owned by the same company.
Why shouldn't they merge them all together? Gmail sends appointments, flights, etc to Google Calendar. Should I be outraged by that too?
If you're still oversharing on Facebook at this point, you know what you're getting into. Even those that post that nonsense "I do NOT give Facebook permission" spam that highlights everyone vulnerable to other scams.
I opted out almost 8 years ago be deleting my Facebook account. I would highly recommend.
Arent threads suposed to support federation is rhis meta just trying to take over and kill the only credible threat they face?
They do it on Instagram too. I barely use Instagram as it is, but I have noticed that it's suddenly loaded with "recommended threads" or something dumb
Be the change most of us want to see and the world needs. Stop using their products and making excuses for why you need them.
It's all one app.
What's wrong with that..? Is anyone surprised?
What's Threads?
No, nevermind, I don't want to know.
Is that because no one is using Threads?
Threads was already dead when porn was banned, that's why it's so hard for people to move from twitter.
I don't understand why people use Twitter or Reddit for porn. There are dedicated sites for that stuff.
I think people use things like Reddit for anything because Reddit has a built in system of human curation. It's not just SEO engineered garbage fake websites like basically every search engine will yield now, or sites' internal searches pushing you to their top players instead of what you're actually searching for.
The company that everyone warned would ruin the threads platform is ruining the threads platform? Oh no. Anyway,
Imagine still using fucking Facebook in the year of the Christians lord 2023
Threads still exists? People still use Threads?
I have Instagram because in my country it's the only way to contact some businesses. And they are mingling threads posts in between the IG posts.
