Meta said it will start allowing users to delete or deactivate their Threads accounts without also closing down their Instagram accounts. Instagram boss Adam Mosseri said in a Threads post that the change is rolling out on the platform. Threads was launched in the summer as a rival to Twitter, with Meta boss Mark Zuckerberg hoping to scoop up Twitter users unhappy with Elon Musk’s changes to and management of the app, which is now known as X. Despite early success, with millions of people signing up, many voiced their frustration due to Threads requiring an Instagram account to complete registration, which also meant anyone wishing to delete their Threads account also had to shut down their Instagram account. We heard feedback that you want more control over the experience, so we’re rolling out a way to opt out of being featured outside Threads Instagram boss Adam Mosseri Mr Mosseri said in the weeks after launch that Meta was looking to changing the requirement, and in a post to Threads, the Instagram boss confirmed a new option in the app’s settings will enable users to close their Threads profile only. He said the update is “based on feedback from our Threads community”. He said a second update is also rolling out to users, which will allow them to switch off a recent feature that sees Threads post also appear on the feeds of other Meta apps – Facebook and Instagram. “We heard feedback that you want more control over the experience, so we’re rolling out a way to opt out of being featured outside Threads,” Mr Mosseri said.

Arsenal’s preparations for their first away Champions League game in six-and-a-half years were thrown into chaos due to travel delays. Mikel Arteta’s side face Lens in their Group B clash at the Stade Bollaert-Delelis on Tuesday night but had to cancel their pre-match press conference on the eve of the game. The Arsenal boss was due to speak to the media with France defender William Saliba at 1900 local time but their chartered flight was grounded at Luton airport. The Gunners had trained at London Colney at 1130BST before being due to travel to France on Monday afternoon but bad weather saw those plans cancelled. The PA news agency understands Arsenal will not face a fine as the cancellation was out of their control – with the squad waiting over three hours at Luton before being able to make the short hop over the channel. Among the travelling party stuck at Luton were Bukayo Saka – who was passed fit to travel despite limping off injured at Bournemouth on Saturday – and fit-again midfielder Thomas Partey. Partey had been sidelined since August with a groin injury and the club hoped to have him back for the visit of Manchester City on Sunday. “He’s progressed really well in the last two weeks and he managed to train in the last two or three days with the team and that’s great news for us, obviously,” Arteta said of the Ghana international. “I think his progression in the last week has been very good. He might have some exposure tomorrow depending how the game goes.” Both Arteta and Saliba later spoke to a small number of reporters over the phone and the latter insisted everything would be fine heading into the game. Asked if he was confident the team would still be at their best, he replied: “Yes, of course. We have to arrive first but tomorrow is another day and we will give our best against Lens. We know it won't be an easy game. It is a really good team who finished second last season William Saliba “It is a really good feeling. My second game in the Champions League with Arsenal. I can’t wait to play in France so it is a good feeling. “We know it won’t be an easy game. It is a really good team who finished second last season. “They didn’t start well but in the last two or three games, they are better so we have to be focused on tomorrow and give our best.” Read More Mikel Arteta delighted to see Arsenal’s ‘human qualities’ after Kai Havertz goal Kai Havertz off the mark for Arsenal in rampant 4-0 win at Bournemouth It is the food – Mikel Arteta suggests reason behind string of Basque coaches Football rumours: Juventus seeking new long-term deal for Adrien Rabiot Arsenal break Women’s Super League record – but suffer shock Liverpool defeat That win goes down to the manager – Craig Dawson hails Gary O’Neil
