This is a useful feature on reddit. I don’t want to unsub or block a community or user, but a don’t want to keep seeing a particular post in my feed.

    Not quite the same thing but just today I’ve come across this userscript: lemmy-keyword-filter

    It’s a very simple keyword filter. I am using it to get rid of some noise from a community that I am otherwise interested in.

    I use Violentmonkey to run it but any userscript engine should do as long as it supports GM_getValue, GM_setValue and GM_registerMenuCommand which are used to provide a minimal UI to edit the keyword list. You might want to edit the @match rule to restrict it to the Lemmy instances you use.

    You may want to cross-post this to [email protected] instead, as that’s where Lemmy-as-software discussions/requests are more appropriate. It’d be a nice feature for sure though, and the current “Hide read posts” option is just a bit too overkill to suggest as a workaround for you for now, I think.

      Exactly! I don’t want to read everything I hide and I don’t want to hide everything I read.
