Seems like quite a lot of people don’t know that there is a profile setting to not show posts that you’ve already read.

I don’t actually want to hide all the posts I have read, since a lot of them are things I want to go back to. What I really want to hide are posts that I am not interested in. Is there an app that will let me select which posts to hide? Or is that feature under development? As Lemmy grows, it’s becoming a huge issue that I can’t prune my feed without unsubscribing from whole communities.

Yeah great idea! I dont think that I saw such issue in github, but I would also like to see this feature.

Does this mean just having read the OP? So if there are new comments it still won’t show?

If so, is there a way to hide posts where there have been no new posts since I last opened it?

Yes, you have to read the OP to mark it as read. After read, with new comments, post will remain as read. There is no way for that at the moment, but I think this is great idea!

Sadly, it seems that on desktop you have to OPEN the post, you can’t just expand it if there’s an image.

This is great but I’ve turned it off because sometimes I want to go back to a post I’ve recently read to see new comments.

I really wish there was an option to hide posts I’ve downvoted. It’s still early days so I imagine that will come later.

Thanks for the PSA!
