Also, although Mastodon has different purposes from Lemmy, it does have a more robust filter system. You might want to check that out as well.
One of my favourite features of my Reddit app (Sync) is "Mark Read on Scroll" and "Hide Read Posts" as an action button on the main screen. Something like that would be fantastic
same on apollo. i only discovered it like 6 months ago yet somehow had used the fucking site for 10 years already
Sync had a hide upvoted and down voted posts I loved. In my mind if I was "done" with a post after reading everything I'd vote on it and wouldn't have to worry about it vanishing if something came up and essentially restarted at my front page.
The other obvious use being down voting a post meant I didn't have to see it again.
Something like a simple hide read / voted.
It would be really helpful there was a similar feature for stickied posts too 😒
It looks like this was requested but not planned to be worked on. Could you add to this issue? https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/1403
There's a "Show Read Posts" checkbox in settings. Is that not what you are looking for?
As far as I have noticed, if you've voted on the post that also counts as "read".
Not quite. It's more like, "Oh, I definitely don't want to see this post, I don't want to read it or see the headline or the thumbnail ever again." It might be cringe, it might be triggering, it might be gore or spoilers or anything else -- where I don't want to block the user or the community, but DEFINITELY don't want to see the post/thread.
Thank you! Was looking for that!
There’s the setting „Show read posts“ which can be disabled to hide already read and/or up-/downvoted posts.
I'd love to have this feature, or a "mark as read" button at least
This seems like the most elegant solution. I don’t want to downvote or upvote somethjng just to get it off my feed, a simple “mark as read” button next to the up/down votes would be a great easy solution.
I look forward to this functionality being added.
There are many times posts come up that are of no interest to, and I don't want to figure out if it is worth an up/down vote. I also don't want to up/down just to mark it as read so I don't see it. I don't think that is helpful to the overall system.
edit: on my Android I use the Boost Beta and long pressing let's me mark a post as Read, then in my settings I can indicate to "hide read". Its useful within Boost but I'd rather see it be a native feature.
Not that I'm aware of, no. It might already be on a TODO list
