Maybe this is unpopular but I’m getting tired of opening lemmy and having to scroll past the same post that I have viewed already, half of the posts on the front page are 2 or 3 days old.

    I used to hide on upvote / downvote, would be cool if Lemmy adds this as an option too

        Awesome! Where in settings is it? I can only see “hide on read”

          The checkbox is checked by default so uncheck “show read posts”

            We really need a button to “mark as read”. While this is all new, I don’t want to block anything yet without seeing how it might evolve.

            Ah, I thought you meant a setting to hide a post after a upvote or downvote. This setting is for hiding read posts, so not quite what I meant. Thanks anyway!

              Oh right but should have added that upvoting or downvoting a post counts as reading it. I wish there was a “mark as read” button but this should still do what you want I think

                  I will say that IME it “works”… only barely, and occasionally not. I swear I’ve up/downvoted things to get them off my feed but they still appear at the top. I have no idea why that is happening 🤷
