You could say it comes with some threads attached.

[–] G0FuckThyself@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Glad I don't have an Instagram account.

Not in the slightest.

And people are seriously considering federating with Threads if it implements ActivityPub. Things have been so crazy recently that I think If Satan existed and started a Lemmy instance, probably there would still be people arguing in good faith for federating with him.

[–] jtk@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I would totally follow Satan.

[–] RooRLoord420@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Right? You're going to sit there and honestly tell me you wouldn't follow the devil? Guys like Tom from MySpace, ya gotta follow him.

[–] howsetheraven@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

That guy who runs all the orgies, has all the drugs, and listens to hair metal rock? I'd federate with that guy 1000 times over, I don't know how he's being compared to Meta.

Pretty sure you use an Instagram account to login to Threads, so that makes sense.

[–] thatcasualgamingguy@lemmy.nerdcore.social 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

By that logic you'd have to delete your Google account if you want to delete any account for which you have used Google to login.

[–] normalmighty@programming.dev 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

...do you not? To delete the data I mean, not just to make it appear deleted to everyone without access to the Google/Meta user database.

[–] thatcasualgamingguy@lemmy.nerdcore.social 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If you want to delete something that is part of your Google account, then yes. Like your Gmail address. But not if you want to delete your account in an entirely different service, that only uses Google for the login. I guess the problem is, that Threads is perceived (and maybe also marketed) as an independent service while it's apparently just part of your Instagram account.

[–] normalmighty@programming.dev 1 points 1 year ago

Might depend on who you talk to. Everyone I spoke to about it was under the same understanding that it's integrated deeply with your Instagram account.

I spun up my old burner Instagram account to check the platform out. They tell you that you can only change things like your name from Instagram, the app let's you import all other profile info from Instagram, and when you login for the first time it shows you the thread profiles of everyone you follow on Instagram and gives you a button to add them all.

It's not just an Auth method, it's the same account with the ability to change a few things between apps. Plenty of reasons to hate Threads, but this ain't it.

It's one account for two thingies.

[–] kratoz29@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Next genius idea, if you happen to have an account on multiple instances on the Fediverse the deletion of one will delete them all ☠️

[–] FierroGamer@vlemmy.net 1 points 1 year ago

Is that not how it works already? If you use the same account for multiple instances you don't have to delete it multiple times.
