A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I'd love a feature where I could hide my own post, but make it clickable so others could see if they feel like clicking or not

If you have server space somewhere, you could just put it there and post a link to it here.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Are board mods going to be Formalised? Because it could make things take a while.

Kat, that sounds like the t lj-cut tag from LiveJournal. Interesting.

Not an option for most, though.

What does that mean?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Generally, I'd rather scroll through something I'm not interested in than have to click through to something I do want to read. Especially on slow-connection days. Just MO.

Kat, that sounds like the tag from LiveJournal. Interesting.

It's a functionality that motet has that I use with regularity, particularly if it's a long post that breaks into what is otherwise a topical kind of discussion. Also very handy for hiding all of the "Insents".

Dunno that we want it. Today is the first day that I have a need for it, but I kept thinking, "Damn, my application is 4 pages. I don't want anyone to feel like they have to read!" Maybe I'll just be an ass and post it anyway.

I was referring to

something that should be raised for Formal Discussion at some point

That's not something I want to see happen for modifications. The development cycle is fragile enough as it is, what with people's schedules and stuff.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm making this up as I go along, but blinvisible doesn't feel like something that needs voting -- it's a feature that people can use or not. Feedback feels like a much bigger cultural shift.

Agreed.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

This is what I was thinking, too.
