This is a must have for me or I simply don’t use the app. An important detail though: it should only mark posts as read if I’ve scrolled past them! Not any post that can be seen on the screen.

Agreed. Used it all the time on Boost for Reddit, that’s the only thing that I miss on the Beta

I was happy when I heard boost was released, but since this vital feature is missing from the Lemmy version I cant use it. Literally every other Lemmy app I tried has this feature. Why would you force users to go through the context menu and hide read posts literally every time they open the app?

Came here to post this. Everything else is perfect so far but this is the feature everyone else was lacking. Already purchased the ad free.

Yes please! I randomly open lemmy a couple of times a day and would love not to scroll through the same things every time. It worked really well on boost for reddit

This is the one! This is why I wanted boost in the first place. For now I’ll just keep using Sync, which has this. I don’t need full feature parity with the old app, but this one is especially important since lemmy is so much slower paced than Reddit.

Yes, please. I need to be able to get to the end of the internet. I don’t want to keep looking at the same posts over and over.

How are we doing on this? I’m missing this feature almost every day.
