A link to a popup or a reveal of similar posts would be used even less. Not saying the placement is optimal, but having them visible lets you quickly scan if there is something you want to see.

Think about it, if people can see it now, but don't use it regularly, having them take the effort to click on it only to reveal nothing click-worthy would very quickly train them to never click on it.

I don't think hiding the posts is the answer if you're going to have that feature, imo.
