Adam KlasfeldQuestion: My crossposted threads are set by default to "unlisted," but I'm hearing from folks that the posts other than the top one are appearing on the feed anyway.
Is that what you're seeing too?
JB Emmons@KlasfeldReports Unlisted posts/replies seem to still show up on the Home timelines of anyone who follows you.
However, they don't seem to clog up Local timelines (at least on my instance), so people who don't follow you won't be bogged down with them.
It's *kind of* like on Twitter: I'm more likely to see individual replies in a thread from someone I follow, but not in an overwhelming way, and not if I don't follow them.
Greg Petrites@IntlLawGnome @KlasfeldReports In the upper right corner of each post in the timeline there is an icon showing visibility. Your replies to your thread are properly showing as "unlisted".
For your followers, their home feed has a setting for "Show replies". If this is enabled, they will still see the unlisted replies in their feed. It appears to be enabled by default, but they can turn this off.
@gpetrites @IntlLawGnome Good to know, thanks.
Louis Ingenthron@KlasfeldReports Yes, but I also see those posts explicitly marked as unlisted, so...?
@LouisIngenthron @KlasfeldReports you can change the settings for your Home feed to disable "Show replies" and the replies will no longer appear
tamara@KlasfeldReports check with @feditips. There was a toot about it, I’ll see if I can find it.
@KlasfeldReports hmm according to what I’m reading if you post with unlisted it should nest them.
Cranky Davidunlisted just means they don't appear in the LOCAL feed of your server. followers should still see them. I'm following you and do see them and they're marked as unlisted.
a request though: can you add a CW to your crossposted posts? not sure how @chrisgeidner is doing it but it is fantastic.
@cranky_david @chrisgeidner Is it possible to CW crossposted posts? I see no option in the interface that I used. If I could default to a generic CW, I would, but it's not currently possible on the one I use.
@chrisgeidner @KlasfeldReports I'm guessing it depends on your crossposting software. i see it on chris's feed so i appears possible.
@KlasfeldReports @chrisgeidner
one last note on the value of this
the CW tag would allow two things for those of us who follow you on both sides
a) only rewd your threads once
b) distinguish when you're on mastodon and responding for conversation
love the threads and content and don't want to increase your workload.
@cranky_david I would love to learn how @chrisgeidner does it, and I'd switch to default CWs if given the option.
The crossposter that I use specifically doesn't have that functionality.
Chris Geidner@KlasfeldReports @cranky_david Hi! Sorry, been a tired/energized/I don’t know where I am day! Anyway, this is the cross-poster I have used: https://crossposter.masto.donte.com.br/
No worries, @chrisgeidner! That's the one that I use, too. What's the functionality that lets you use CWs for cross-posted content? @cranky_david
Nathan Reed@KlasfeldReports @chrisgeidner @cranky_david In your settings, maybe "advanced settings" under "from twitter to mastodon".
Tracy Hall@KlasfeldReports i *think* the point is "unlisted" show up in feeds, but not in *searches* - so *searches* find only the "head" of a thread.

@KlasfeldReports Yes, I can see all posts, not only the first of the thread (I like it though)

Chris Brown@KlasfeldReports I've enjoyed having your content over here, as I followed your work on Twitter. And seeing journalists/creators I have enjoyed following in other forms expanding their reach and trying to be respectful to other instances/people who want to filter out certain noise is awesome. Thank you to everyone doing their best, It's all we can ask of one another.
