Indicator marking posts which are not visible without login

When you are logged into Cohost there is no way to tell at a glance that a post/blog is only viewable for logged-in users. If I'd like to link a post to non-Cohost-using friends, there is always a nonzero chance that they can't see it and I won't know until they try (or I put in the effort of double-checking first every time in incognito mode, etc). A neutral, simple indicator like the ask bubble icon on post bylines, or possibly like the locked account avatar decoration, would provide a useful visual cue and make promoting Cohost to others smoother.

Yes!! This would be huge for not only sharing to buddies, but being able to reference Cohost posts in things like articles, outside forums etc as well.

Also, adding onto this, the ability to make specific posts visible to certain levels of the public (those you follow/allow list, logged in users, everyone) would be great.
