How do I hide “read” posts

Reply in thread

Especially because it makes it unclear whether posting is a success. I posted something and because it was deemed read, it immediately disappeared off my profile. I refreshed to no avail, so I thought it didn’t post properly and tried again. When I turned off the setting, I saw that there were two posts the whole time.

It’s because the barrier to entry was lower. Mastodon requires learning about and understanding instances and the fediverse, finding one with good performance and the vibe you want and creating a new account. For threads, you just install the app and log in with your preexisting instagram account. Even users who weren’t interested in the long term would check it out briefly, because the hype is high and it’s easy.
