I understood it as only related to reposts. I could see it helpful to have 2 settings:
- āDonāt see reposts of this noteā which would affect only a single note. This would be useful when a single popular post shows up in your feed too much.
- āDonāt reposts of this userās notesā which would affect all reposts of notes from that particular user. This would be useful when you follow a particularly popular account that always gets reposted by everyone.
Not sure if that is what the others in the thread meant by it though.
Yes, I think that is what I understood it to be as too.
Basically something that would stop a personās feed from getting bogged down by reposts of a single popular note.

Ah I see, makes sense now.
Ideally these manual actions shouldnāt be necessary as the Hide seen posts toggle makes sure you see a post only once, repost or not. But I added the ā(beta)ā because it currently forgets across app restarts and for some reason it seems to restart more often than it should.
Itās a very inventive setting. I havenāt seen it in any other client, surprisingly.
