Lol as if a tiny visual toggle to remove a UI element from appearing in a single screen is so time and labor intensive that it’s going to make it completely impossible for the developer to work on “more pressing things”. If it’s such a hassle to add and has no benefit, why did every other lemmy app developer add it to their apps, without anyone even needing to ask for it in the first place for that matter?

Just because you don’t see a benefit in it or refuse to doesn’t mean it isn’t a useful feature, otherwise it wouldn’t be in any of the other apps at all. And this post is a “feature request” not a “feature demand”, I didn’t ask that the feature be given some kind of special attention, just put it out there that it would be useful to have. If you don’t like that, move on. The post wasn’t addressed to you, it was addressed to the developer, so you speaking on his behalf on what he may or may not consider a useful or time-intensive feature to add doesn’t really have any value to me.
