Threads is powered by Instagram, so right now it's just one account, but we're looking into a way to delete your Threads account separately.

Maybe I have really poor reading comprehension, but this does seem to imply that your threads account IS your instagram account

they are linked if you have an insta, or you can just make a threads account like some of my friends did. But you Dont have one by default, you still have to give your consent to sign up for it.
