Is there any way to undo the “hide read” option? Or at the very least can I view a list of the hidden posts somewhere?

If you refresh then hidden posts will reappear in your feed.

Wasn’t this a bug?

I reported it as a bug weeks ago.

But maybe is working we designed… In any case, right now, it solves OP issue.

i think it is, but the dev should add a separate list for all hidden posts. so you can go there and un-hide it.

I wish sync worked like connect did with hide read.

You can have show read checked but mark read and hide read in connect and it’ll still hide on refresh and you can still view your own posts when you go to your profile. Since doesn’t seem to work that way.

I wish I could understand what you’re describing.

I think what they are saying is: Lemmy itself has an option you set on your profile that shows or hides read posts. That’ll apply forever no matter which client you use, but you can’t even see your own posts that way so it’s frustrating.

Then the clients themselves, like sync, might have their own option to hide read that works independently of the Lemmy setting, in which case they should have more control over it.

In my case I have Lemmy set to show read posts but sync set to hide them but like other people have said, it doesn’t seem to work perfectly.

Used to work this way with Reddit. Difference is Lemmy doesn’t support hiding posts.

My problem is that “hide read” never stays that way after a refresh of a page.

Right now bro all you have to do is refresh to unhide lol.

I kind of like that tbh. For “hide read” at least. For manually hiding a specific post I’d prefer it stick and have a “hidden posts” lists I could refer back to if needed.
