Check a video freeWhat triggers it
Content about governments, elections, laws or social topics. Meta may now recommend it to non-followers based on personalized signals, but viewers who set their Political Content control to see less will not be shown it.
What Threads says
“We may recommend political content from profiles people don’t already follow based on personalized signals.”
How to fix it
No change required. If broad reach matters more than the political angle, keep the topic non-political.
