Threads Now Lets You Schedule Posts Up to 75 Days in Advance

Threads, Meta's social network that's meant to rival X, has announced it is rolling out the ability for all users to schedule posts.

instagram threads app
Threads can now be created and scheduled to go up at a later date and time. Multiple posts can be scheduled per day, up to 75 days in advance, but it's not possible to schedule replies.

To use the feature, create a post, select the three-dot menu in the top-left corner, and select "Schedule." Once a time and date for posting has been selected, you can view, delete, or edit the post from the drafts folder.

Announcing the feature on Thursday, Instagram head Adam Mosseri added that Threads is also adding a way to "markup" re-shared posts by drawing over, highlighting, or adding arrows to the existing post. The feature is rolling out to a "few countries with more to come soon," said Mosseri.

Threads recently announced a handful of new features, including performance analytics for content creators, and support for writing and saving multiple drafts via Threads for web. Threads is also introducing X-style Community Notes, as part of Meta's broader shift away from fact-checking moderation.

I don't understand why people join Threads. It has so many downsides from the start. Heavy censorship and those annoying algorithms that decide for you what you see. I hate that. I want see posts from people I follow in chronological order.

Too late. Deleted all my Meta accounts. Was easy to get all my stuff in a download package as well. I thought threads would be a nice platform but now that Zuck has turned into… whatever it is he’s doing, it’s just a poser version of edgelord twitter.

“Apple has done nothing original lately”, says man whose company’s latest products are a Twitter clone, a CapCut clone, and turning Instagram (which he acquired- not made) into a TikTok clone.

Hope is good, but I can’t find a single reason to believe humanity can advance beyond this endless cycle of Twitter, Facebook, Threads, TikTok or whatever comes next. It dominates every aspect of life. Even if you think you’re above it because you’re “not on Twitter or TikTok,” nearly everyone you talk to is on it all day, and they’ll be on the next garbage platform too. Younger generations are even more entrenched.

Short of becoming Amish or something, I don’t see how this ends. Screen time (really just a proxy for social media) must be nearing 12 hours a day for these people. All offline interactions are infected by it.

Ace. Here's to lots more banal, wishy-washy, self-serving, engagement-baiting statements in my feed. On time, all the time.
