As per title. Unlisted posts can not be reblogged, but the web UI still shows a reblog icon for such posts, and it can be clicked. After spinning for a while it then returns to its initial state, which is confusing (especially if you’re unaware of the limitation of reblogging unlisted posts).

The official mobile client does better: there such posts apparently don’t have the reblog icon. An alternative solution is Mastodon’s (web UI’s) way of showing a boost icon, but disabling it (so that it doesn’t react to clicks).

(The instance I’m on is pixelfed.social. The most recent post I had this issue with was federated from https://vernissage.photos/@magda/7470629220893329794#)

I blocked the account all those posts listed were from, then unblocked the domain (after which the posts were still there on the home feed), then blocked it again, and now those posts appear to have vanished. I don’t know which of the steps were crucial, but I’m open to experimenting further if it can help.

I added pubeurope.com to my blocked domains, and now my home feed consists of nothing but posts from that domain.

I’ve apparently blocked Threads previously (although I don’t remember it, so it may just be a default), but I don’t recall seeing posts from Threads in my timeline. Certainly not completely filling it like this.

I’m on Pixelfed.social.
