When I hide posts in my feed I was expecting to not see them again (as it worked in RIF), but I do see them again if I refresh my feed.

I was a RIF user in Reddit, never used Sync before, so maybe this is working as intended. I hope it is a bug as for me hiding posts should prevent the post to appear again in my feed.

    Yeah agree this is annoying. I don’t use hide very often, even if that was stored client side as a list of hidden posts I wouldn’t mind.

    I actually don’t hate it working like this, funny enough. I want to come back to threads I’ve read before sometimes if the discussion in the comments keeps going, so with it working this way I can use it as a sort of toggle. Long press the FAB to hide, refresh to show.

      In sync for reddit you could look at your hidden posts. I prefer to have hidden messages stay hidden. But hey to each their own :)

    You mean hiding the post or making them as read?

    I know the latter is completely client side, and it used to have like a workaround in Reddit to move it to their server side hidden section.

      I mean hiding, not marking as read.

      I hide posts in my feed by swiping them to the left. When I refresh they all come back.

      I actually do want read posts to come back, I just don’t want hidden posts to come back.

      Thanks for your advice anyway.

    Are you sure they’re the same post? I’ve noticed people here aren’t happy posting to just one community/mag, oh no. At least two is very common, and three still happens a lot.
