The first week, they suspended my account because I was following too many people. They never said that or told me why, so I'm guessing about that.

Then they let me back on, but I could no longer follow anyone. There was no tech support, no answers, nothing.

I could not use Threads like people should be expected to use social media. They don't allow it, so it was absolutely unusable.

I gave up.
