Instead of hiding all read or voted posts, I think it would be great to have a swipe option to hide individual posts. I’m coming from Narwhal for Reddit, and for me that was a killer feature.

Some posts are that good that I don’t want to hide them after I’ve read them, but rather read them again later (or follow their discussions). Other posts I want to hide right away without even reading them. Would be awesome if this was possible.

In any case, many thanks for Memmy, it is an incredibly good app already!

    I would also like to see options to hide all posts above and to view hidden posts. I was used to those in Apollo.

    Seconded!

    I never liked having to downvote to hide on reddit. I’d prefer a more neutral “just hide this for me” option.

    I’d also like to be able to hide communities easily. If that’s already possible, please let me know.

    I don’t use the app that much but wouldn’t options for what you want to do with the swipe, either right or left be better?

    At least give us the options to save a post, or mark unread.

    Again haven’t used the app in awhile so can’t member if it has swipe actions to change.

      I agree with configurable swipe actions, but I think that’s already in the works, if I remember correctly. My suggestion here is to make ‘hide’ one of those actions (haven’t seen that mentioned before). And yes, ‘save’ would be very nice too.

    Swipe to hide / mark as read exists in the inbox. It should be easy to implement to the main page

      Just tried it in my inbox with your comment, and the effect is exactly what I meant. I’m not so sure though if it is that easy to implement. Internally, I guess every post should have two flags: ‘hide’ and ‘read’. It should be possible to hide unread posts and at the same time show read posts (but also hide other read posts, if that’s what you want). This might mean an extra column in the internal database of the app, or however that works.
