So what is that little grenade looking think on the icon that means "you have posted in this thread"? A grenade? A combination lock? A little lamp of wisdom?
Solved: What is Burning Icon on Thread Posts?

- Start date
In summary, the burning icon on thread posts is a symbol of a popular or "hot" topic that has received a high number of views and comments. It is determined by an algorithm that considers the level of engagement on a particular post. The burning icon is not manually added or removed by users. Its presence does not necessarily indicate the quality of the content. The burning icon is not a permanent feature and may appear or disappear depending on the level of activity on the post.
