"I think your post would read better"

I don't understand that.
Is it passive or active? If it is active what is subject?

It's in the passive voice. The post isn't doing the reading.

It is not passive according to the following definition.

'8 [intransitive] + adv./prep. to give a particular impression when read'—quoted from http://www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/definition/english/read_1?q=read

What is the subject, please?

 

[Matthew Wai]

'Your post' is the subject.
Your post would give a better impression when it is read.

Some might call it a syntactic middle voice: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/middle_voice
