It's all mashed together into one broken link. The Mastodon post was https://universeodon.com/@reverendender/110684373666510819 and the actual article was https://www.insider.com/meta-threads-delete-account-instagram-2023-6

With any luck this led at least one person to delete instagram.

That link works! Weird.

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is why having "leopards ate my face" in the title is banned in the subreddit :)
