That is a kind of options that, when you see it, you’re like: “Why didn’t they add that earlier than?”
Within the newest model of the Threads app, the Threads crew has added a brand new, auto-inserted Thread depend to your linked posts, indicating what number of posts there are within the full sequence, and the place the reader is as much as.
As you possibly can see on this screenshot, posted by app researcher Radu Oncescu, now, while you create a multi-post threads, Threads will embrace a depend on the finish of every put up.
So slightly than you having to manually enter “1/3” or comparable, Threads will now do it for you, which is able to make it simpler to truly create Threads.
It’ll even work in the event you return to a Thread and add extra to it (or take posts out), updating the put up depend in reflection of your modifications.
It’s a very good replace, which, actually, needs to be an auto-addition for X as nicely, offering a easy method to enhance multi-post threads, and make sure that readers perceive that there’s extra context.
So it’s a comparatively small change, when it comes to broader performance, however a useful one, which shall be of profit.
It’s not accessible to all customers as but (I attempted it and it didn’t work for me), however it seems prefer it’s coming quickly.
We have requested the Threads crew for more information on this replace, and we’ll replace this put up if/once we hear again.
