Yes, there is a way. Bookmark the thread, leave it a week or so, and then read the thread normally because there won't be any new comments anymore. Certainly it's not the end of the world if you leave a thread to mature.

I find it interesting that the first detection of phosphine on Venus was in 2017 and later confirmed with another telescope in 2019. Does this mean that the scientists basically need to keep it a secret from 2017 until now, even if it's such an exciting news? How do they prevent "leaks"?
