Meta is starting to ramp up its growth-hacking tactics for Threads in a bid to boost engagement on the Twitter competitor.

    there’s no way to opt out

    Yes there is a way to opt out. Just opt out of Facebook and Meta products all together.

      If not everyone using messenger, I would. I’m not using Facebook tho, but it doesn’t help much

        Everyone has an excuse but you’ve gotta start somewhere. There are probably hundreds of ways to message people and we would all survive if Meta and it’s products vanished.

        I use Facebook Messenger but not Facebook or Treads, just set up bare minimum profile and highest privacy settings.

        I believe you can disable your Facebook account but still use Messenger, couple of my friends don’t have a profile but can still message.
