👋 @pluralistic In your bio, you write, "I post long threads. If you don't like these in your timeline but want to read them, I suggest unfollowing me here and subscribing to my RSS, or my newsletter, or any of my various long-form feeds. Links at https://pluralistic.net "
I just learned that "it’s considered polite to use a public visibility setting for the first post but an unlisted visibility setting for the replies in the thread"
What I do is use a Mastodon filter with the string "Long Thread/" and set to "Hide with a warning". I also use Elk, which bundles threads together.
This result shows the thread, but hides all the content behind the same sort of thing as a CW. So the thread is there, but vacant unless I want to dig in.
