Why have you taken away the ability to remove a thread from “threads I’m on” on the mobile site?

Sometimes a thread that I have been in gets derailed, or so lose interest and no longer want to follow it. Used to be able to just remove from Threads I’m On (which is where I always start my browsing). Can’t do that any more, it’s quite annoying to have that feed clogged up with stuff that is irrelevant.

Hi there. This thread seems to have fallen off the radar of @soniamumsnet but I thought I’d keep trying.

An example of why it is so annoying- I’ve been contributing to a thread about a TV show. Final episode is out now but I can’t watch for a few days. Thread obviously about to explode with comments on the denouement and I cannot hide it to stop myself seeing the spoilers! So Threads I’m On is now a no-go area for me.

Pretty please?

Contrast the two here. “I’m watching” has the ellipsis bottom right of each thread that allows you to get rid of it. “I’m on” used to have the same ellipsis which gave you the option of removing a thread from the I’m on” list when you clicked on it.

@soniamumsnet still no change in “Threads I’m on”. Still having to scroll past discussions I have long lost interest in to get to the ones I do want to follow.

Any idea why this review didn’t go any further?

Exactly the same function on “I’m watching” and it is still there and working perfectly.

Actually I don't mean delete, I mean remove it as the OP said Smile

Hi @soniamumsnet
Is it possible to delete a thread I've posted on? Not just hide it?

RockingMyFiftiesNot · 16/10/2020 17:00

@soniamumsnet

Hi *@RockingMyFiftiesNot* thanks for this. Please can you update to the latest version and let us know if you still have problems? Flowers
It's not me who has the problem - I was just telling the OP I could hide threads I'm on - but not sure if I'm on the latest version and whether that capability will disappear seeing as others don't seem to have it

I use mobile app on iPhone.
In the list of threads you're on, If you press the < you get the option to hide.
That said, not sure when I last installed MN updates so the app might have changed

Hi, just popping in to see if this is still an issue for anyone. Flowers

PineappleUpsideDownCake · 10/10/2020 08:45

Mine dots are still there. I often hide threads from "im on" when I get bored of them or people irritate me!

I'm not on an iphone if it makes the difference.

Thighdentitycrisis · 10/10/2020 08:42

Posted op twice, Can you remove one if my thread please ?

Hi, thanks for the screenshots which are really helpful. We're taking a look at this now. Flowers

peachypetite · 09/10/2020 07:24

This is mine. No option.

Mine came back. I’ve updated my phone which might be relevant??

SoupDragon · 08/10/2020 22:51

@CheetasOnFajitas

Thanks *@RivkaMumsnet*. If it’s relevant I am using an iPhone running iOS 13.7 and use the mobile site not the app
Mine is iOS 13.5.1

Hmmm... thanks for the screenshots, it's always really helpful. Looking into it now!

JustMeAndMyTins · 08/10/2020 22:03

Mine is the same as yours, OP. I wonder if it’s after a software update or something. It’s really annoying. Almost as annoying as my bookmarks not feeding between my phone and computer even though I’m always logged in on both! Hmm

EerilyDeleted · 08/10/2020 19:55

They're still there on my phone, at the bottom RHS of the posts

It’s there in “I’m watching” but not in “I’m on”

No ellipsis for me @SoupDragon!
What do you think @soniamumsnet?

On Threads I'm On there are ellipses that let me watch or hide the thread. They're not at the top or in the thread though.
