    No, it’s like being upset that your Facebook friends show up in Facebook Messenger.

    WhatsApp is a standalone and separate product. “Threads, an Instagram app” is not.

    Their IG profile is not visible in threads. Their username is visible to people who already follow them.

    It’s not a matter of being into the whole thing, it’s a matter of people with an axe to grind being intentionally misleading about what is actually happening, and others being ignorant because they won’t bother to double check (which is reasonable, but they could at least admit their ignorance). Accurate statements are much more powerful.
