If you are one of those people who refuse to look at social media for fear of spoilersMeta’s Instagram-Adjace Threads The application has a solution that he hopes that you will keep you anyway to take off. The new tool will allow people to mark words in their messages like “spoilers”, preventing the eyeballs that have not yet watched, let’s say, a certain episode of The last of us Learning the macabre fate of a certain beloved main character.
According to The Hollywood ReporterThe functionality “Let users hide text or images that spoil a piece of entertainment (or anything that can be spoiled), simply marking it like a spoiler. When a user marks it a spoiler, the text or the image will be vague until the one who sees the message selects it and asks to know more. ”
This looks like Reddit’s feature that allows users to hide the potentially spoiler text when publishing in forums discussing recent television shows, for example. So far, Threads is the only social media platform to offer such an option; X and Bluesky, underlines ThR, have no anti-spoiler tools in place.
In theory, it’s a great idea. However, it is on the person who publishes to deploy functionality, which means that it is up to individuals to decide what they think is a spoiler and what is not – as well as an acceptable “window” is for Blabing about a major touch of the plot. For some, it could be a week; Others may be “as soon as the thing happens in my time zone.”
And really, there is a bigger question at work here: what do you do on social networks at all If the spoilers are so important to you? Inevitably, someone will reverse the beans – even if you only carefully walk on the wires – and you will only have to blame you have seen everything he wrote.
