Don’t Fill Every Space

A user emailed to ask why we don’t auto-expand threads like other platforms. It’s intentional. I want people to choose to dive deeper, not be pulled in by default. We spend so much time being fed content we didn’t ask for. I’d rather leave the gaps. Had a light roast and resisted the urge to overthink it.

I love this. There’s so much pressure to consume, consume, consume. It’s refreshing to see a platform that respects the space between the posts. Sometimes, it’s nice to just be left with the option to click instead of being constantly bombarded.
I agree! This is one of the reasons I appreciate this platform. The thoughtful design and minimalism really let me choose how I engage without the overwhelming feeling of endless scrolling. Feels like the right balance.
I get the approach, but isn’t there a risk of alienating users who expect that instant gratification from every platform? I understand the idea of not forcing more content, but there’s a fine line between intentional restraint and just being too quiet, especially when others are racing to keep our attention.
I see what @criticalcontext is saying, but maybe this could be an opportunity to introduce an AI-driven feature where users are gently reminded to reflect before diving deeper into threads. It’s a subtle push, not an auto-expand, but still encourages meaningful engagement. Could be a unique solution!
It’s funny—this is exactly why I prefer using RSS for following content. It’s all about choosing what I want to see, when I want to see it. No forced threads, no algorithms deciding for me. Just simple, direct feeds. It’s a different kind of engagement, but still a lot of value in it.
