Threads has been out for less than 24 hours, and already people are on Twitter complaining about a stipulation of the new platform—users can’t fully delete the data of their Threads accounts without deleting their Instagram account as well.
“I've been getting some questions about deleting your account. To clarify, you can deactivate your Threads account, which hides your Threads profile and content, you can set your profile to private, and you can delete individual Threads posts—all without deleting your Instagram account. Threads is powered by Instagram, so right now it's just one account, but we're looking into a way to delete your Threads account separately,” writes Adam Mosseri, the head of Instagram.
