Built on the network you already have
Because your Instagram followers and follows carry straight over, you don't have to build an audience from zero β you can start conversations with people you're already connected to right away.
Replies and reposts serve different purposes
A reply keeps the conversation going in the same thread, while a repost shares someone else's thread with your own followers exactly as it is β worth knowing which one fits what you're trying to do.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do my Instagram followers automatically follow me on Threads too?
Yes β the follow relationships from your Instagram account carry over automatically when you join Threads.
What's the difference between replying and reposting?
A reply adds your response inside the original thread's conversation, while a repost shares that thread as-is with your own followers.
