Automatically creating a shadow account for everyone on Instagram?

Even allowing people to follow that account?

Sounds like they really wanted to push Threads out the door in a big way.

    Can we please stop with the misinformation campaign.

    Everyone on here is trying to pat each other on the back by being better than Reddit.

    So far no one on here acts differently from Reddit, no matter how much you guys like to pretend lol.

    “Shadow accounts” lol. It’s literally your instagram account. Threads is built on top of Instagram. None of this is some hidden secret.

      I’d you have to create a threads account, which shares and logins to your Instagram account, for it to be active, but people are being sent advice to follow accounts which haven’t been activated, then this is bad faith behaviour and not misinformation.
