Are you finding the desktop experience to be too complicated? That's alright! It does take some getting used to.

You can enable "Ostrich Mode" in your settings, or use the mobile app. You can also "trick" your browser into displaying mobile through the Developer Tools. Press CTRL + SHIFT + I, then click on the little mobile icon at the top of the code bar.

@CoSoTips Easy there turbo, you might teach folks how to make the experience a little too easy.

I really like Ostrich mode! Now the only thing flying by is the Firehose! 😂

@MaryZacharias
you can scroll down just a smidge and it will stop. Then you can scroll and read at your leisure😉

That technique works well on my desktop and my Android. It doesn't work as well on my iPad, for some reason. The Firehose is really "jerky", for lack of a better word, on my iPad. 🤔

@MaryZacharias
I'm not on my iPad enough to notice. Hopefully it's due to the high traffic influx ☺️ .

I think it is. I didn't notice it as much before this past week or so. Growing pains. 😉

@GlitteryFab
Ostrich mode removes the news feed at the top and something else at the bottom….nothing is flashing at you all the time.

@Peacebee
Go to settings, scroll down and check “ostrich mode”, then scroll down and click “save”.

@CoSoTips.. Good to know.. I didn't know there was a mobile app.. 😄
