Keep in mind
  • If someone replies to your thread and you delete your thread, their reply won’t be deleted.
  • If a private profile you don’t follow replies to your thread, you won’t be able to see their reply.
  • Anything you post on Threads is subject to Meta’s music usage guidelines.
  • Unlike Instagram, Threads currently doesn’t offer the branded content tool. If you are posting branded content on your Threads profile, make sure to indicate that the post is a paid promotion by adding text or hashtags to the post that specify it’s a paid partnership. See more about Meta’s branded content policy.
