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.
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. When someone replies to your post, Threads will send it directly to your inbox. Other users won’t be able to see the replies or likes.
