Hey there, tech lovers! Today, I’ve got some exciting news about Threads, Meta’s latest social media app that’s giving Twitter a run for its money.

Threads now lets users manage Hidden Words independently from Instagram, adding a new level of customization. You can filter out content with specific words, phrases, or emojis you’d rather skip. Previously, these filters worked across both platforms, but now you can keep them separate for a more tailored experience.

What’s cool is that you can also set time limits for these filters. If you don’t want to block certain words forever, you can snooze them for up to 30 days. Perfect for avoiding spoilers or temporary annoyances without losing the filter entirely.

This update comes shortly after Threads started testing a new DM inbox separate from Instagram’s. It looks like Meta is making Threads a more independent platform, rolling out new features monthly, including the ability to see fediverse posts, add spoiler texts, and share links with click tracking.

So, if you’re plotting to dodge spoilers while waiting to catch up on your favorite show, or just want more control over what you see, these new features are just what you need. Stay tuned for more updates from Meta on how they’re evolving Threads into a full-fledged social hub!
