Anyone else get their Threads account banned for no reason? I started to grow a following so posted more but now it will be all deleted. Got this after I submitted phone number and selfie for review!

Bluesky gives you actual control over what you see, while Threads works like Facebook and Instagram—a computer decides what to show you based on what keeps you scrolling longest.

On Bluesky, you can choose custom feeds made by other users (like a feed only for news, hobbies, or chronologically ordered posts from people you actually follow) and you will not get forced ads mixed into your timeline. On Threads, Meta controls the main feed, often hides links to outside websites, and pushes viral content from accounts you do not even follow.

Although Threads gained rapid adoption by leveraging Instagram's existing network, there are several significant drawbacks that limit user autonomy and control.

Because the platform relies heavily on Meta’s central recommendation algorithms, the primary "For You" feed prioritizes content designed to drive immediate engagement and viral reach over authentic user connections.

Additionally, Threads is fully tied into Meta's advertising engine and cross-app data tracking, offering minimal real transparency or user ownership over their social graph. Without open protocol infrastructure, users cannot build custom feeds, run independent servers, or access community-led moderation tools, leaving all content distribution and policy enforcement entirely in the hands of a single corporate entity.

this legitimately makes me wanna just quit using this s*it...

I got no ban reason or email. If you appealed, did you send it right away or wait a few days first?

After getting suspended from X for a BS reason of "inauthentic behavior," I assume many others are getting suspended for false reasons too due to their flawed AI so hopefully Threads will overtake X since X jumped the shark twice - the first time for being bought by Elon and having its name changed.

Who knows what Google is sharing. But, for those still on it can they try it and see if it makes a difference? I’ve said it before it’s likely Google that’s still listening, not sure about meta.

my account was "locked because threads team suspected someone hacking my account. so i am trying to get back in. and i cant because i enter the 2fA code thats fine. but when i click send me a code to verify viaa my phone (forget i have a meta account instagram account and facebook i could confirm it with) i just dont get a code via sms.

so please fix SMS to japanese cell phones.

Hello, I legit came back onto threads and made a new account after so long, just to be hit with “we removed your comments” almost immediately. At first I thought maybe I was the problem so I cooled down on the replies.

But now it’s legit every single reply I do. I thought maybe it was the emojis I was using so I didn’t use them, but even then, I’m still getting comments removed for alleged spam. Let me not talk about the annoying selfie and phone number verification either, that’s gonna get me vexxed. Oh and it’s asked me to verify myself for the SECOND time now it’s really pissing me off at this point

I’m seriously at my wits end. My other account was never like this so I really don’t know why this one is 😤😤 Safe to say I’m pissed

I’ve interacted with some fun and lovely people too
What is actually going on with that app?

It serves no purpose other than being a version of social media somewhere between instagram and twitter in terms of use and significantly worse functionally due to poor UI.

I also notice the algorithm it attempts to follow is not in any way linked to my own. I constantly get shown garbage i have no interest in. I cannot go a single post or thread or whatever, without seeing people seemingly at eachothers throats regarding the blue star state, elites, and political affiliations. it doesn’t even matter the context of the thread, it could be pertaining to the seed vault and somehow it becomes this segue for dissent conversations. It’s everywhere but only on threads for me. Is this a platform for pushing narrative? No one i know irl actually uses it to post anything. Example texts from the seed vault discussed.
