A Lemmy instance definitely saves that data as an instance admin can access it through the DB. Not sure if this is exposed via API

Strange! To give you more info, I've tried this on both Chrome and Firefox on Android.
Here's a screenshot of my "hidden posts" section: https://ibb.co/93F95h9
This post is also not visible in the voyager community: https://ibb.co/XyrWdM3 (sorted by new)
Thanks a bunch for all your work!
Edit: I just scrolled through my Home feed and since I have activated "Mark read on scrolling", after tapping "hide post", it hid those 4-5 posts and they all show up in my profile "hidden posts" section. But this post still doesn't show either in voyager community or in "hidden posts"
Thanks for the reply!
I had actually given it a try. For some reason, I don't see this post in the "hidden posts" section in my profile.
Love it, as my feed can get fresh items when I check Lemmy frequently.
However, I have noticed that once a post is hidden there's no way to get it to be displayed back on the app. The "hide read" functionality hid this post once it was read but to give this feedback I had to go to your profile @[email protected] and find the post again. Am I missing something?
What additional addon does Pimp My Streamio provide? I couldn't find a list of their addons. Is it worth the hassle as I only use Streamio on Android.
Streamio with Torrentio add on + a Debrid service is all you need.
Why would the app installation be slow? Do they create sandbox for each app?
Yup, you have a good point with the third party advertisers not following GDPR. And I agree that the privacy policy should be as transparent as possible.
Yep, I just wish atleast the major instances outline this clearly to the users. Fediverse definitely has its merits that outweigh these pitfalls. Everyone should still be aware of this in as transparent way as possible
It is reasonable because I can have a trust basis with my followers who are my friends/family. If a malicious instance host can just use a plugin to view follower only post, that's not going to be expected by an average user. That's why I posted in YSK.
I wasn't aware of PGP, thanks for that info!
That seems as a weird decision by Firefox considering their relatively privacy focused image.
