Yes and they claim it is connected to your instagram account, hmm then it means it is not fully decentralized? Because instagram account is centralized and threads account connected to it.
Offtopic : They display number your threads joint user number on instagram, I got so big because my account got eligible today lol
There ain't shit decentralized about it, meta's just trying to hop the "federated content" bandwagon with a data sucking ShopVac. It's the same shit in a different skin...
