Threads now allows you to manage the hidden words separately from Instagram, define time limits

Threads, Meta’s Competitor to X, now has its own hidden word parameter that works separately from Instagram. The functionality allows you to filter the publications containing words, sentences or emojis that you do not want to see in flows, research, profiles and answers.

Previously, the hidden words were linked to Instagram, so that the filters you have entered would be applied to content on the two platforms. Now you can create a separate list of hidden words on threads to further customize the content you see on the platform without impact on what you see on Instagram.

Threads have also announced that you can now define deadlines for filters in cases where you do not want to definitively block certain words, sentences or emojis. You can now define filters to expire within 30 days to “repeat” them until you want to review related messages in the application.
