Threads will let you hide spoilers in your posts


Threads is rolling out a test that will let you hide images or text that contain spoilers, according to a post from Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg. With the test, you’ll be able to blur content by tapping an image or highlighting text and selecting the “mark spoiler” option.
Other users can view the hidden content by tapping or clicking the spoiler. Reddit similarly lets you hide posts or comments using its “spoiler” tag, but it’s nice to see another platform adopting the feature, since it’s never fun to scroll past unexpected spoilers.
Meta spokesperson Alec Booker told The Verge that this is a “global test,” though it’s not clear how many people will gain access to it.
Spoilers will also look a bit different depending on which device you’re using. On desktop, spoilers are hidden by a gray block, but they appear behind a bunch of floating dots on mobile (which you can see in the GIF embedded above). “This feature is currently optimized for mobile, but we’re working to improve the experience for desktop,” Booker said.
