I’m using Voyager as my daily driver. I love the hide post button, but I find when I’m browsing by New I have to keep hitting the button over and over again, until unread posts appear. This is slow and a bit annoying. I suspect the app is hiding all loaded posts that have been read, and then gets a bunch more posts, that have also been read, and that is why I have to keep hitting the hide button.
From a usability perspective if the App could keep doing this until my feed is only unread posts it would be great.
If you’re on Android and interested in a beta, I’m looking to put Luna for Lemmy up on the play store this weekend.
This version hides (or collapses) anything read or voted on (the read doesn’t always work on the server side), but in the next version I’m going to be reworking the datastore so you can hide anything that’s already been loaded in your feed as well. If I have time today I’m going to do that without saving after closing the app
I’ve also got a half dozen options for filters and a ton of convenience features I always wanted on Reddit, and there’s a lot more to come - my next big goal is to merge user defined feeds with their own filters. Iphone build will come once I can get my hands on one for testing
I set up !flemmy@lemmy.world before changing the name, check it out if you’re interested. I’ve put appearance on the back burner a bit, but as far as features I’m pretty confident I’ve gone further than anyone else.
I’m also very open to requests/suggestions - for example I rarely post or browse by new, so if you can explain why, how, and the pain points I can do more to support your use case
