What threads do you always hide?

[Acc0untant]

If any!

If I scroll through and see anyone ask about accountancy help, HMRC advice, tax return, accounts etc I just hide them. I can't stand seeing 90% of the "advice" on those threads being absolute bollocks.

I used to hide the divorce ones when I was going through mine, I didn't want extra headspace going into it.

Benefit bashing ones

Weight loss jabs

I have never hidden a thread. I just scroll past anything I’m not interested in or don’t want to see.

I don't hide any. I just don't open them!

TW threads about abused children.

You can hide threads??

I hide the Feminism sex & gender board and The Royal Family as I find posters on both absolutely nuts.

I'm on the android app so unsure if it's different for others but click the three dots next to the thread and choose "hide"

Loads!

Why haven't you hidden the topic?

On some internet forums, you can hide (ignore) a user, but it's not that common to be able to hide a thread. I just skip past them.

Any with enormous titles that fill up my screen. So usually the mafsaus and loads of the feminism ones.

Of course, and whole topics, is that not what everyone does?

There was a very amusing thread once complaining about these types of threads, and the title was verrrry long 😂.

Threads bashing Harry and Megan. Sanctioned bullying.

Benefit ones …..so much wrong/misleading is given out it pains me! Also hate the assumptions that those in receipt of benefits “owe” the rest of society/taxpayers should have a say in how benefits are spent. I wish a speedy comeuppance on such types!!

No threads but I hide topics that don't interest me

Anything with references to animal abuse/neglect.

I used to hide hundreds. Thousands. But if I hid one mistakenly it was impossible to get it back because they didn’t seem to be in any order whatsoever. So I unhid everything, some were years old, and now I hide but after a month or so I unhide so they have hopefully dropped off the front page and I don’t see them anyway.

I don't think I've ever hidden a thread.

I either read the title and don't open it, or I open it, read the OP and then just ignore it.

I don’t hide any particular subjects, but I avoid posting on the ones that are clearly trolling with some subject or other and are loving the attention, updating constantly (suspiciously quickly), creating thread two three and four in quick succession and getting all the usual sycophantic fan girling.

Anything that starts 'who thinks there's going to be a war?' or similar. I'm old enough to remember the aftermath of the last war, and the very topic fills me with such dread that I can't even look.

They don't stay in there. People think they've found the holy grail and want to talk about it, not getting that we're not interested and would rather the threads stay in their own board.

Definitely long titles..

I hide loads of topics like the Royal Family and Sporners Corner and so on. All the ones about abused and dead children. Sometimes I hide all of AIBU to give myself a break - if I find myself getting all aerated about something.

Really I should stop going to Active and just use My Feed, but I don't remember ever doing this really. When did that feature come in?

There was a long running saga about a horse in a field once, that ended up discussing which actress would play the OP in the film.

And there was one that started out about the programme ‘our girl in the army’ or something, with Stacey Slater (Eastenders) that ran and ran and ran and ran……………..
