'Mark as read' ⚪🟢

'auto mark as read any post by someone called Jack' ⚪🟢

I’m not sure about that because I tried to understand it and I don’t get it.

Is this a toggle on a single post? or where? mark what as read?

This is the same as ‘mute/block Jack’ ? or just reposts?

I understood it as only related to reposts. I could see it helpful to have 2 settings:

- “Don’t see reposts of this note” which would affect only a single note. This would be useful when a single popular post shows up in your feed too much.

- “Don’t reposts of this user’s notes” 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 person’s feed from getting bogged down by reposts of a single popular note.

Ah I see, makes sense now.

Ideally these manual actions shouldn’t be necessary as the Hide seen posts toggle makes sure you see a post only once, repost or not. But I added the “(beta)” because it currently forgets across app restarts and for some reason it seems to restart more often than it should.

It’s a very inventive setting. I haven’t seen it in any other client, surprisingly.
