Most apps let you automatically hide posts you've looked at previously. I'm not sure if you just need to scroll by or if you need to actively engage with it, but it's there if you want that
Lemmy on Voyager has an option to ride read posts but by "read" you either have to click on it or up/downvote.
Edit: HIDE read posts.
Boost has an option to mark posts as read when scrolled past.
I would suggest that judicious use of the block function is more effective, though. It's the same handful of users who consistently are the proverbial firehoses spraying all that shit-tier content into the fediverse.
Block them one by one and in no time at all your feed will clean up. More quality per scroll in the long run.
Agreed. I block people who spam the same articles in tons of questionably related instances.
Oh so I gotta click on or upvoter downvote to get rid of em. Thx
