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 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.
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?
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
I use jerboa. Can someone tell me how to do that? Or suggest an app with such feature?
Top left lines, settings, username settings, uncheck show read posts.
Thank you for the information.
oh my gad, where have you been all this time?!
I’d like a hide post button. I sometimes want to hide posts, but not usually ones I’ve interacted with.
Can anyone confirm if toggling this on web carries over to mobile apps?
Yes it does. It’s a hard setting for your Lemmy profile that is applied to your account, which effects your apps. Some apps allow you to change this in the settings.
I had to toggle them separately.

Which mobile app are you using? I can’t find this setting on wefwef or liftoff on Android.
I’m using Connect.
Is there a way to change the default comment sort?
Not at the moment. You can only select three sort type for posts and your default homepage. But these are in the works.
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.
oh my gad, where have you been all this time?!
Will this only hide those posts on the frontpage or also on other pages?
It’s worth noting that this setting also hides then from search results, which is pretty silly imo. So when searching, use a different account/different browser
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
Hello there, and welcome to our community! I hope you like it in here.
Could you please include some body text as to why should people know this, and how would that help them? It’s our second rule. Thank you :)
