How to change your Threads feed to accounts you actually follow
Reading Time: 2 minutesArrived at a party where you don’t know a soul? You can change the settings.
So you’ve signed up for Threads. Despite the millions who’ve supposedly also joined, it’s kind of quiet in here so far, with folks signing up and testing out various posts and vibes in Meta’s answer to Twitter.
But if you’re anything like me, you arrived to what feels like a party where you maybe recognise one or two friendly faces, but the rest is noise. Luckily, there’s a way to change it, not quite to the chronological feed we all crave but at least to a feed of people you actually follow.
Threads, Meta’s version of Elon Musk’s tempestuous Twitter, launched on Thursday in the UK and U.S. on iOS and Android. Accessible only through Instagram, the standalone app requires you to login through your Meta account. Once you’re signed up to Threads, you’re given the option to follow everyone you already followed on Instagram (which, as our social media identities can be wildly different across platforms, might be very different to who you follow on Twitter). But despite following people you know, your Threads feed automatically defaults to a whole bunch of accounts you don’t.
Here’s how to make sure your fresh new feed is made up of people you actually follow. And if it’s getting too much, here’s how to pause Threads notifications.
How to change your Threads timeline to accounts you actually follow
It’s important to keep in mind, if you sign up for Threads and want to delete the whole thing, Meta will also delete your Instagram account. Fair warning. And like all social media platforms, Threads is absolutely tracking you in a bunch of ways.
