Hi, sorry to be a complainer—I’ve just seen a new “continue reading” feature and I don’t like it. If I stopped reading a sequence or article it means I’m aware of its existence and have chosen not to read it. This feature keeps reminding me of my least favourite articles (right now it’s convinced I should read Aaron’s placeholder post for a new sequence). I couldn’t spot any way to remove it. Okay, that’s all, thanks very much for your attention.

It sounds like the “placeholder post” you’re seeing is a draft that should be invisible to you, which indicates a different bug.
Is the title you’re seeing “Sequence Placeholder Draft”, or something else?
Yes that’s right—it has [Draft] [Unlisted] before that title
Oy vey, thanks for the notice. Definitely a bug, and one LessWrong is now looking into.
There should be a button that appears when you hover over the post on the frontpage that allows you to remove it from your continue reading queue.
I can’t hover, I only use the Forum on mobile. Thanks for the suggestion though—good to know it’s possible!
