English version: when somebody signs up for Threads, we used to make it easy for them to follow all the same accounts on Threads that they follow on Instagram. We stopped doing that for people in a handful of countries for a few months and saw that those people used Threads more, not less. So now we’re going to stop asking people to follow all the same accounts on Instagram that they do on Threads as part of the sign-up flow.
