Threads has launched a new panel that allows users to see the restrictions on their accounts more transparently. This innovation developed by Meta works in a similar way to Instagram and similar applications on Facebook. Thanks to the panel, users will be able to see in detail which shares are removed or why they are less shown in the flow. However, this feature clearly reveals why the accounts are deprived of some functions.
The new account panel aims to make the platform rules for Threads users more understandable. In particular, critical information is listed in this field, such as which shipments are contrary to the community rules and therefore are not recommended to other users. Thus, users can act more consciously about their content when they think they violate the rules. In addition, thanks to the objection mechanism in the system, it becomes possible to initiate a correction process for those who think it is unfair.
Threads aims to prevent misunderstandings
This new system strengthens the principle of transparency and aims to prevent misunderstandings. In terms of content producers, knowing which behaviors lead to punishment makes it easier to prevent future mistakes. However, this feature has a critical meaning not only for individual accounts, but also for professional users who produce advertising and content. Because being active on the platform stands out as an element that directly affects account reputation and access.
In addition to this step towards improving Threads’s user experience, a new advertising application was announced to diversify the revenue model of the platform. Meta announced that short video ads have been tested in Threads. Accordingly, the videos of 19: 9 and 1: 1 will be placed among the organic posts at the content flow of users. This feature, which is tested with a limited number of advertisers for now, can spread to wider audience in the future.
The integration of video ads into the platform shows that Threads’ advertising infrastructure matures. Ads were first added to Threads in January; Then, in April, this system was spread globally. Now, the commissioning of a new advertising format supported by visual-obedient content reflects the effort to provide a more compatible advertising experience of the platform with content flow. This aims to position users’ interaction with ads more naturally and not to disturb.
This advertising -oriented expansion of Meta is not limited to Threads. On Facebook and Instagram, innovations are also available on advertising models. New short video ads placed around the reals contents target areas with the most intense user interest. On the other hand, including Facebook Live, new advertising formats for branded collaborations will be implemented.
