it is for me the only reason which prevents me from using fritter

Even with the group system, removing the answers, there are still many

This is already supported, if I'm understanding your question correctly!

To filter out replies for a group (including the All group), open the group up, then tap the menu button at the top right. This will bring up some checkboxes - one of which is "Include replies". Unticking this will prevent replies from showing up in that group.

If you instead mean when viewing a profile directly, there are now tabs across the top of the profile - Tweets, and Tweets with replies. The first of these will filter out replies.

Let me know if this helped, if I'm misunderstanding something, or if something is broken!

it doesn't really work @jonjomckay

This solved it for me, but I wouldn't have found it without these instructions as I don't really use the groups tab, so I didn't think to explore there.

To expand on it: Go to the Groups tab (second tab), press the All box and a new view pops up. Press the 3 dots on the top right and from there you can turn off replies and retweets.

Yeah, as a new user I found this pretty confusing and off-putting.

Sure, the option is there but very well hidden, doubt I would have ever looked for it under the All group hamburger menu.

@Mrnofish 100% agree

The only solution i can think off is just provide a filter option on the main feed of the app so that it will be visible to all. I had the same issue. I didn't even looked inside the Group options and im sure most people aren't aware of this option.

What do you think @jonjomckay ?

I've added the "All" group menu to the Feed screen (0443027), and the change will be going out in v2.17.0.

Feel free to try out one of the CI versions of Fritter to see if it's any better for you. Thanks!
