I sometimes get a bunch of Dutch and German posts. They seem to come in waves. My high school German from years ago is not up to the task so I'd rather filter them out!
OK, so I've known a number of Scottish people and I've been there a couple of times and generally had no issue understanding them.
However, when working in London years ago, I had to talk to someone based in Scotland on the phone and her accent was just insane.
Honestly it was exactly like this post, she'd say something, I'd say sorry what and this repeated 3 times then....we both burst out laughing. The most insane Scottish accent ever!
I have the same issue. It works fine when creating a post. But when replying none of the buttons do anything when tapped. No response at all, like they are images instead of buttons.
Very weird. I tried turning off Adguard, because sometimes that is a little too rough on blocking everything, but that didn't help.
I think it would then delete any account in both Instagram and Threads.
But there's no need to do that. If you already have Instagram and your happy with it, there's nothing extra you need to worry about just because there's a shadow account pre set up for you in Threads.
It's a shady way for them to push their new service, but it's not like they suddenly have any more info on you than they already had.
My starting assumption is that almost everything I read online is either misrepresented or totally untrue.
If I don't recognise the source I assume there's a high chance it's bullshit. If I recognise the source well, I still assume there's a chance it could be inaccurate.
Yes, but in this instance, they are allowing people to pre-follow that shadow account and then apparently you get a notification to say they have followed you promoting you to join and follow them back.
That's a very cunning way to boost their new service quickly!
I'm relieved they're not doing that with WhatsApp.
Nah, 3-6 days max.
