Just
like
Instagram,
Threads
will
now
automatically
filter
out
potentially
offensive
words,
phrases,
or
emoji
by
default.
In
a
post
on
Thursday,
Instagram
head
Adam
Mosseri
announced
that
the
new
Hidden
Words
feature
will
apply
to
both
your
“Following”
and
“For
You”
feeds,
along
with
search
results,
profiles,
and
replies
to
your
posts.
If
you
want
to
cast
a
wider
net
over
the
content
Threads
filters
out,
you
can
add
specific
words,
phrases,
or
emoji
to
hide
by
tweaking
the
option
inside
the
app’s
settings.
Meta
notes
that
you
can
turn
Hidden
Words
on
or
off
at
any
time.
Instagram
started
letting
users
filter
out
abusive
words
from
their
comments
in
2016
before
extending
the
feature
to
DMs.
Additionally,
Threads
is
testing
the
ability
to
mute
notifications
for
interactions
with
your
post.
As
shown
in
the
image
shared
by
Meta,
you
can
hit
the
bell
button
in
the
top-right
corner
of
a
post
to
turn
notifications
on
or
off.
The
platform
is
also
trying
out
a
feature
that
will
let
you
choose
who
can
quote
your
posts.
You’ll
also
be
able
to
unquote
yourself
if
you
don’t
want
someone
quoting
your
post.
On
X,
you
can
similarly
choose
to
filter
out
sensitive
content
as
well
as
mute
certain
words
or
phrases
on
the
platform.
It
also
offers
ways
to
limit
who
can
reply
to
your
posts.
These
new
features
build
on
some
of
Threads’
existing
controls,
which
let
you
choose
who
can
reply
to
a
thread
as
well
as
who
can
mention
you
in
their
threads,
replies,
or
bio.
The
platform
is
also
testing
a
new
feature
that
will
let
you
automatically
archive
your
posts,
allowing
you
to
hide
old
content
from
your
profile.
