Most of the 100 million people who signed up for Threads stopped using it::“We’re seeing more people coming back daily than I’d expected,” Zuckerberg said.

So we’re gonna sit here and pretend that there weren’t automatic sign-ups for Instagram users? They got signed up without choice. Facebook did that.
Upvoted for your edit. Publicly admitting you’re wrong has become too rare.
I have no problems publicly admitting that you are wrong.
I think because people’s egos are more fragile than ever these days. Being wrong is like end of the world.
It wasn’t automatic. Not sure where you got that idea. But you had to get the app and then sign in using your Instagram account to set up the thread profile. They had “shadow copies” of your Instagram profiles on threads so for example you could sub to someone’s profile and when they’d join threads you’d get their activities. But no it wasn’t automatic.

This is the key. There certainly were NOT 100mm people that signed up of their own accord.
To add further context to the corrections this comment has already received, there are 1.6 billion (with a B) Instagram users. Far more than 100 million.
