Threads is no more! At least not for us in the EU.

After a lovely week, it’s gone. Or partially gone. I still get notifications, I can still read the timeline (threadline?), but I cannot reply. Or post. Or see the notifications tab. Or any profile.

I can’t see my profile on the app, but it’s perfectly fine on the web.

I had to get it from the US App Store, to start using it, and today it stopped working. No amount of trickery will fix this. No VPN, no setting my phone to another country, nothing works.

Meta has confirmed they are actively stopping us from using the app. No matter how much we want to.

I get it, they are using our data in very nasty ways. But I’m a grown man. Big tobacco used my lungs for decades. Big alchool has a foothold on my liver to this day. I read the warning labels, think about it, and decide to partake anyway.

What is different here?
