Instagram began as app-only but eventually ended up being accessible via a web browser. Nowadays I feel that more people access the internet mainly though their phone. Will Meta end up opening it up to web browsers, or is the data SUCC that apps allow too tempting for the zucc?

(I won't be using it, no matter what happens)

      You can see profiles if you know the usename, e.g. https://www.threads.net/@zuck .

      I have to disable tracking protection in Firefox for it to load anything but a splash screen.

      Looks like it was available briefly and then taken down

      I'd bank on it being available again sometime soon

        Oh! After a cursory web search I couldn't find an actual Threads webpage. Thanks for the article.
