Threads aims to leverage the best of Instagram's infrastructure while offering a distinct experience centered around public text conversations. Future developments may explore deeper integrations with the Fediverse, enhancing interoperability across decentralized social platforms. Privacy remains paramount; easily manage your profile visibility (public or private), control mentions, and understand how your data is used through clear privacy settings linked directly to your Instagram account management. Our robust content moderation systems, combining AI and human review, work tirelessly to maintain a safe environment, aligned with Instagram's Community Guidelines. We are also exploring features like improved search functionality, topic-based feeds, and collaborative posting options to further enrich the user experience. Your feedback directly shapes this evolution, so keep sharing your thoughts! Accessibility features are also a core focus, ensuring Threads is usable and enjoyable for everyone.
