The latest update delivers two significant enhancements: <a href=\"https:\/\/digitrendz.blog\/z\/topic\/reply-approvals\/\" class=\"acp-topic-link\" data-topic-id=\"122560\" title=\"Explore: reply approvals\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">reply approvals<\/a> and refined <a href=\"https:\/\/digitrendz.blog\/z\/topic\/activity-feed\/\" class=\"acp-topic-link\" data-topic-id=\"122562\" title=\"Explore: activity feed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Activity feed<\/a> filters, both designed to foster healthier and more manageable interactions.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A standout addition is the reply approval function. This lets you screen and authorize replies from other users before they become publicly visible on your threads. While existing options let you restrict replies to followers or mentioned accounts, this new tool allows you to keep replies open to everyone. You can now welcome broader participation without the risk of conversations being hijacked by unwanted comments. This approach empowers the original poster to <strong>set the tone of the conversation<\/strong>, maintaining a balance between public discussion and personal control.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alongside reply approvals, Threads is enhancing its Activity feed with new filtering capabilities. You can now more easily isolate replies from people you follow or those that contain direct mentions. These join the existing filters for Verified accounts, Quotes, and Reposts, providing multiple ways to sift through engagement and focus on what matters most to you.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The platform&#8217;s growth underscores the importance of these user-centric updates. <a href=\"https:\/\/digitrendz.blog\/z\/entity\/meta\/\" class=\"acp-entity-link\" data-entity-id=\"252\" data-entity-category=\"Organization\" title=\"Learn more about Meta\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Meta<\/a> recently shared that Threads now boasts <strong>150 million daily active users<\/strong>, a notable increase from the 100 million reported in December 2024. The app also surpassed 400 million monthly active users back in August. As its user base expands, Meta is also advancing its monetization strategy, having launched global advertising on the platform. The company is now preparing to introduce video ads to the mix.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Development continues on features aimed directly at users. <a href=\"https:\/\/digitrendz.blog\/z\/entity\/instagram\/\" class=\"acp-entity-link\" data-entity-id=\"24\" data-entity-category=\"Technology\" title=\"Learn more about Instagram\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Instagram<\/a> head <a href=\"https:\/\/digitrendz.blog\/z\/entity\/adam-mosseri\/\" class=\"acp-entity-link\" data-entity-id=\"10168\" data-entity-category=\"Person\" title=\"Learn more about Adam Mosseri\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Adam Mosseri<\/a> confirmed this week that Threads is testing new controls.
