i am begging fedi users to understand that threads and instagram use the same account
At this point it's just willful ignorance.
No, it’s just that users don’t like systems where you have to opt out by default. Like you used to have to opt out of shitty marketing emails after a purchase, but then we changed that to opt in and everyone is happier.
I guess it's a god thing you have to opt in to Threads, huh?
