    If i remember correctly, Threads just uses your pre-existing Instagram account so 108 million is a veeeery theoretical number. We will see how many users actually move to Threads and whether our instances don’t block Threads instances.

      You still need to sign up to/log into Threads (via Instagram) to have a Threads account or be active on there though, so what makes it theoretical? If they counted all Instagram accounts as Threads accounts it’d instantly be in the billions surely.

        According to some users, Threads made a bunch of bot accounts to reach 108 million users. However i don’t have proof, nor do i know why it’s 108 million bots (or copied profiles) instead of around 2 billions.
