The feature

There already seems to be some fairly active discussion on similar topic in #2451, however that feature discussion is way more complex than what Im looking for.

All I'd like to do is be able to set certain pictures/videos and albums as "sensitive". It could be a check box, a specific tag, whatever is easiest to implement to be honest.

All that would happen with an image or video thats marked as sensitive is the thumbnail would be blurred. Same if an album were marked as sensitive, just blur the album cover.

When you tap the thumbnail, the original non-blurred version is loaded.

A toggle in the UI to blur/un-blur all would be nice though. This way you don't need to tap every single image to find the one you're looking for.

Thats literally it, no passwords, no hiding from the timeline, just a blurred thumbnail with a toggle.

I support your idea — it's exactly what I’ve been looking for. Why? Because it would allow us to easily blur out certain sensitive photos. For example, imagine you have pictures from a surgery you went through — you probably don’t want those popping up when casually scrolling through your timeline with others around, just trying to find a specific photo from a specific date. It would be awkward if such “special photos” suddenly appeared. A tag that triggers a blur would be perfect.

#2451 is now implemented, superseding this request.
