If you use Mastodon through your server's website, you might have noticed an eye icon 👁️ in the top right corner of post threads. Have you ever wondered what this does?

This icon is really useful if you are viewing a thread with lots of posts hidden by Content Warnings (CWs). Clicking the eye toggles all the CWs for the entire thread open or closed, which saves a lot of time if there are many CWed posts in that thread.
