"Threads is launching a new feature called the "ghost post:" a post it will automatically archive after 24 hours. These posts will come in handy if you want to share a thought, but don't want to keep it on your profile. It's also a feature that users on X, formerly Twitter, have long requested, leading them to turn to third-party archiving tools."
"Threads first started testing the ghost post in April as one of many new features it's been drip-feeding, including direct messages, 10,000-character posts, and group chats. It also added new communities where you can find posts related to specific topics. You can create a disappearing post by toggling the ghost icon in the post creation menu, and they'll appear as a gray chat bubble in your feed."
Threads will introduce ghost posts that automatically archive after 24 hours. Ghost posts allow users to share ephemeral thoughts without leaving them on their profile. The feature responds to long-standing demand from X users who turned to third-party archiving tools. Threads began testing ghost posts in April alongside features such as direct messages, 10,000-character posts, group chats, and new topic-based communities. Users create a disappearing post by toggling the ghost icon in the post creation menu. Ghost posts appear as gray chat bubbles in feeds, and replies are sent privately to the original poster's inbox while remaining hidden from others.
