Also, if this selected, it will hide any posts you make. I have been saving the posts I make as a favorite until Lemmy fixes this.

    I’d like a hide post button. I sometimes want to hide posts, but not usually ones I’ve interacted with.

      I was thinking about that as well. But what Lemmy needs right now are interactions even if it’s just votes.

    Hm but then you won’t see that the post you were engaging with had new comments since your last visit

      The best method to keep track is save posts as a favorite or use an app, specifically Summit keeps a history of all posts you’ve visited.

      I keep switching between Summit, Jerboa, and Connect

          There have been major updates on each app nearly everyday and the devs are great at intending requests. At first, you could only view posts with no option to post or login.

          I really like Jerboa, which has been down the past week after the latest update. It has a clean layout, can be fast, and is the best for posting but lacks in a few areas that the others have.

          Connect has been the snappiest, it loads thumbnails and has a more clearly defined “thumbnail click area” to a “title text /comments click area” then other apps.I love to swipe to upvote. But, I frequently get an error some posting, which leads to double posts.

          Summit had the best layout, list 2, which feels more comfortable an be the dev said he’ll add left handed mode, which would be nearly identical to rif. It has a history feature so I can go back to a post I viewed if I wanted to upvote it still. It didn’t always load the thumbnail, but I think that’s Lemmy world issue since there’s been a lot of lag this week.

          Edit: I still frequently use the browser version on my phone to see my notifications and respond to posts, as all the apps give me an error while posting due to the lag.

    It’s also worth noting that the “Hide Posts” setting also hides your posts too, so if you need to edit a post you’ll have to unhide it.

        I believe people have mentioned before that the posts are really hard to unhide so once its hidden thats it. So if you comment then it counts as interacted and then its gone. It may have been changed in updates though but ive been scared to try.

          It is annoying, but I found that if you go back to your settings page, and toggle the setting to show read. Save, and the refresh, you will see your posts on your profile again. So again, it’s annoying, but just another quirk while building a new service.

      For me it’s annoyng because it’ll hide my own posts, which I’ll check to see if I uploaded to a community I liked for that day.

      Keep it, but make it easier to find on the main page instead of hidden in settings.

    I hope we come to a better solution than upvoting things to mark them read and make them go away. That generates a lot of noise in the voting data. Say what you want about whether votes are useful for sorting content, but flooding them with garbage data can only make them worse.

      Well you can just click on the post too. The upvote would be like, you’ve seen a meme, you don’t care to click into the post but you like it and don’t need to see it again.

        So I have to view things that I don’t want to view to make them go away? That’s just bad UI.

          You right, you right. I wasn’t thinking of posts you don’t want to see at all.

      Yeah, if there was a “confirm seen” button between up and down voting that’d be good for this. You don’t want to register positive or negative for it, just mark it as read. Maybe this should be (optionally maybe) automatic for any post scrolled past?

        Apollo had both actions for “mark this post read” and “mark all posts read to this point in the feed.”

        And you could configure which gestures would do which actions. I customized it with the actions I actually use, and used the shit out of them.

        This is one of this little answers to the question “what was so great about Apollo anyway?”

    I’d like to thank you guys with all the YSK post explaining the little intricacies of lemmy. It’s been a huge help the past few days to get situated here.

    I like this however I don’t want to never see a post again when I view it but definitely would like to be able to hide posts or communities manually

    Thanks for the info but will this eventually reflect in wefwef? Because it’s the only app I use to surf lemmy.

    Thank you for this! Just made the adjustment, I was starting to get a bit annoyed with the same top/ active posts showing for the last day

    Thanks for this! I’ve seen the same few posts in my r/all feed for a couple days now and this completely fixes it.
