Option to hide the number of kudos on a post

[stumpytwig]

Similar to Instagram’s ability to hide the “Like” count on your images (prevents you from seeing the like counts others’ posts and prevents others from seeing the like counts on your posts), it would be great to turn off kudos as an option. I know you’re trying to make a sticky product for that kudos dopamine hit, but I think it’s taken a lot of fun out of exercising for me. I’d still like to share with having activities showing up in the feed, but I don’t want that added ego boost with the kudos. So being able to turn that off would do wonders for my mental health while still competing on segments, etc.
