Okay, but there is some flag that means that going to https://www.threads.net/@instagram https://www.threads.net/@instagram works but https://www.threads.net/@nasa https://www.threads.net/@nasa doesn’t (even though https://instagram.com/nasa/ https://instagram.com/nasa/ is a perfectly valid public Instagram account). This flag is toggled when the Instagram user first signs into Threads. Why can’t Meta just set this flag to false and delete all Threads posts while leaving the Instagram account intact?
- dwaite 3y agoThat Meta is investigating how to make deletion of your threads history possible without deleting your instagram account is actually in the linked slideshow. So it may very well wind up being 'just' setting a flag to false, starting a selective deletion and informing the user that the deletion may take several <units of time>.
