Newb here. In my main feed, I see some posts over and over again. I see a post, click “Next” and there it is again. And again on the next page, and a couple of others I’ve already seen too. And again on the next page. (Sometimes they are cross-posts to a different /c, but mostly not.)

It’s annoying having to wade through post after post I’ve already seen.

What I’ve tried so far:

  • Set main feed to “New” rather than “Active” etc.
  • “Hide this post” when I see it for the third or fourth time

Are there other ways?

    Thanks for the info.

    One thing: I don’t see a “Mark as Read” button.

    I might have the wrong terminology: when I say “my main feed”, I don’t mean an RSS feed in a feed reader, I just mean what I see when I go to my instance’s homepage ( https://lemmy.ca/ ) in my web browser.

      I’m on lemmy.ca too. I almost exclusively do Lemmy with the Jerboa app on my phone which has a setting to automatically mark as read on scroll. I thought the web interface did this too, but I can’t see it. Now I’m confused 🤔
