Users can turn on the Review and approve replies toggle while sharing a post. Any reply that you receive will show up in the Pending tab. From here, you can select which ones to approve and which replies you want to ignore. According to Meta’s blog post , “This way, you can surface the replies you care about most and focus on the discussions you’re interested in.”
The Threads app is also adding a new “People you follow” and “Mentions” filter that will appear at the top of the Activity feed. This will make it easier to sort through replies and find the one most relevant to you easily.
