Hide posts already viewed while scrolling or opened from the feed, is it possible. (lemmy.world)

On reddit every time I open it I see new posts, but lemmy algrothim no matter which way of sorting I choose it shows me the same stuff.

I think this lower exposure of new posts

I think there should be a toggle that applies to all sorting algrothim where it hides posts you stopped at for 1 second while scrolling or opened it.

Almost every lemmy client has a "hide read posts' feature, and if you're getting the same feed results regardless of the sorting you choose, then you're doing something wrong.

New vs. hot give very different feeds., for instance.

I just saw that option on Summit app, thanks

Edit: after changing the feed settings to mark post I scroll by as read, it is still showed in my feed.

There is a floating action button with three dots, tap on that and then enable "hide read"

Lastly, Marking a post as read while it is scroll by i not ideal and I see it as a work around.

It would be better if there was a different metric like viewed or "scrolled by"
