Threads will let you reshare pictures without the original post
Source: The Verge added 18th Dec 2024Threads is rolling out a new feature that lets you share someone’s photos and videos without including the original post. You’ll be able to add your own text alongside the reshared media, which will include a credit to the creator, according to Instagram head Adam Mosseri.
“This is a quick, easy way to add your creative takes to trending images and clips without quote posting,” Mosseri says. Based on the example shared by Mosseri, it looks like the original poster’s username will appear in the top left corner of the photo or video, with a repost counter in the lower left.
Besides making it a little cleaner to reshare media, the feature is likely designed to help cut down on complaints about users reposting content without credit.
Mosseri doesn’t say whether creators will receive a notification when someone reuses their image or video, or if there’s a way for users to disable resharing. The Verge reached out to Meta with a request for more information but didn’t immediately hear back.
To repost an image or video on Threads, you can long-press the media (or the repost button) and select use media. From there, you can add your own text and share the post. X has a similar option, though only for videos, which includes a credit beneath the video and a link to the original post.
