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.

Was also wondering this.

Hi @CheetasOnFajitas just to confirm that we haven't removed any functionality from this section. If you go into 'I'm watching' you should be able to remove threads.

Give us a shout if you need any more help. Flowers

No, you definitely have! I’m talking about “I’m on”, not “I’m watching”. There used to be an ellipsis at the top of each thread that let you hide it. It’s gone.

I agree. You used to click the ellipsis and have the option to unwatch the thread

TheDrsDocMartens · 07/10/2020 17:30

Yep. It was there.

SoupDragon · 07/10/2020 17:37

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.

CheetasOnFajitas · 08/10/2020 19:51

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

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

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

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

RivkaMumsnet · 08/10/2020 22:22

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

Screenshot from mine, Iphone safari on ios 13.7

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

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
TheDrsDocMartens · 09/10/2020 06:19

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

peachypetite · 09/10/2020 07:24

This is mine. No option.

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

Thighdentitycrisis · 10/10/2020 08:42

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

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.

soniamumsnet · 16/10/2020 09:22

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

peachypetite · 16/10/2020 10:21

Yes it is.

peachypetite · 16/10/2020 10:25

Wait it’s back again! Fixed!

RockingMyFiftiesNot · 16/10/2020 10:31

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
