This was a feature that I fell in love with on Boost. I like to sort by top day and do short quick bursts of scrolling through the feed, so it helped a lot.
I’m not even sure if it’s possible on lemmy, or if anyone else feels they’d get use from it as well.
Workaround on Jerboa (maybe also other apps, haven’t checked) - turn on “hide read posts” and simply upvote/downvote as you scroll. Upvoting/downvoting marks posts as read in Jerboa even if you haven’t clicked in, so it’s pretty effective.
It’s a nice workaround for sure, but the only thing I don’t like is that it auto-updates. If I click on a post and then go back to the list, the post is gone. I wish it only hid the post until I manually refreshed the page.
Is there a Way to Hide Posts from Feed that has been Marked Read ?
If it doesn’t exist: https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/issues You can create an Enhancement request.
There’s already an issue at https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/issues/535
Jerboa doesn’t even mark messages as read when you open them :P
It does it you reply though, so I guess we really want you to engage with the platform. ;)
“Sit yo ass down, you’re not done reading until I SAY you’re done reading!”
Not to hijack this, but is there any Lemmy app out there that does this currently?
None that I have found. Been looking to replace Joey and its the only feature that I need in a Lemmy app.
