hey .. If I may.. I'd also like an option in my feed to just see posts and not replies... sometimes I just want to scroll and see what's going on. It's yet hard to click for every comment especially since we don't see the original post 👍

I hadn't thought about this but I agree. will add this with feed customization.
😍
this will be a great addition
This is a great suggestion too. I like seeing comments in the feed for new users, so maybe it's the default, that way new users can easily find people to follow. As those we're following gets more robust, it's hard to find direct posts as most of the feed is filled with comments.
I would make the setting specific to the feed. so if you want replies in one feed and not the other you can do that.
Sounds perfect. Thank you! 
that's what I wanted. The problem with seeing replies is that you don't typically see the original note they are replying to. So my feed is full of 🤙 💯🎯 and other simple replies but I don't get to see all the context and it makes my feed confusing at times
Continuation from previous:
There are times where I like the replies, for instance when I follow the person who posted a note and the person who replied, so my feed tells me all the story and I like it
but when I don't follow the person who posted the note then I don't get to see the original comment.That's probably what's happening?
On mobile it is not obvious if I clicked on load unread. Is it possible to make it change colors when it is clicked or maybe add a load unread button to the navigation buttons?
yes. bc follows feed is really dumb and doesn't fetch any context. this is definitely on the todo list.
Excellent suggestion. Would love a checkbox to hide replies so I can just see the new OPs.
