Linktree has added Threads integration. This feature allows Linktree users to easily add a link to their Threads profile on their Linktree page and display some of their Threads posts. For free Linktree users, this feature requires manually selecting which posts to embed on their page. However, Linktree Pro users will soon have the option to automatically embed their latest Threads posts on their page, keeping their content fresh and updated.
