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.

Sorry for the basic question, but is it possible to manually hide posts? Hiding read posts is a bit too aggressive for my tastes.

[–] empyrean@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sadly no, does not seems like it :/ But implementation of this is already being discussed at https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/384

Yeah, I want both.

[–] speedycat2014@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

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!

This is very useful, thanks! My hot sort keeps getting stale for some reason. This would fix that.

[–] bloodsangre7@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Yeah, and active vs hot isn't too much different for me at the moment. Right now I sort by new and just try to grow the threads

[–] Mpeach45@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

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

[–] Bozicus@lemmy.one 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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.

[–] empyrean@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

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

Thank you, hopefully this improves my Lemmy experience!

[–] kak1154@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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?

[–] empyrean@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

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!
