    Hiding read posts means they’re now lost (when you’re logged in) if you didn’t save the link somewhere. Can’t find it after a day and now you have to check it on incognito.

    But if you don’t hide posts you’ve already read, you end up with the same posts on your feed.

    it’s a very small nitpick though. having new posts load every time I visit lets me see a lot of new content, I wouldn’t have seen otherwise.

    I hope some app devs can put up a section for “read posts” locally so instances aren’t overwhelmed.

    It seems like they’re trying to appeal to admin/users who despise where the developers of Lemmy come from and make them move away from Lemmy to their codebase.

    Their “United States of Amewrica” on their github seems all too intentional.

    But options are always good because the fediverse is all about options. If Lemmy gets too controversial, instance admins can hopefully move over to sublinks without losing functionality.
