Clicking one button != signing up.
- sebzim4500 3y agoIt's not one button, they had to download an app and then auth via instagram. I don't see how it is different from any other service where you can sign in with google/facebook/etc.
- vuln 3y agoSo two buttons? > I don't see how it is different from any other service where you can sign in with google/facebook/etc. It was an account merge. You cannot delete your threads “PROFILE” without deleting your instagram. There is no other service which utilizes google/Facebook/etc to login that when I cancel my account on that platform I lose my google/Facebook/etc account. From the TOS “You may deactivate your Threads PROFILE at any time, but your Threads profile can only be deleted by deleting your Instagram ACCOUNT,” (emphasis mine) Hell even the tos clearly states its not a threads account. It’s a profile based on the instagram account which are irrevocably tied. But hey, they are working on it. Ya know after all the publicity about shattering “SIGN UP” records. https://9to5mac.com/2023/07/07/delete-your-threads-account/ https://9to5mac.com/2023/07/07/delete-your-threads-account/
