Offtopic but here we go:

Once Threads became available in the EU I, like I assume many others, made an Instagram account from my FB account in order to check it out.

2 days later, and without having posted anything except perhaps a "Hello world", my Insta account was banned for generic reason (breaking the TOS, nothing concrete). I only found out 2 weeks later, as I hadn't even visited the site(s) again. Their "Appeal" button leads to a request to send a confirmation code to my phone, but no code ever arrives (Spanish phone, not a complicated country). There's no button or link to tell them that it doesn't.

I know of others who have experienced the same thing. Move fast and break things indeed.
