I’ve heard many people saying that the front-end looks old and needs more work, but I’ve never heard someone describe how it could look better. To me, it looks perfectly fine. I wish it had a card layout similar to libreddit, but aside from that, I think it’s nice. If people want a completely different look, then there’s lemmyBB, and there will probably be other front-ends in the future. However, we should hear opinions about which styles people want.
You should be able to uncheck “Show Read” here in your user settings:
Then you’ll hide any post that I believe you comment on or upvote/downvote, I think? I’m not sure how it counts something as being “read,” that could use some work/clarification. There are times where I feel neutral about a post and don’t want to upvote or downvote (or I see something I dislike on Beehaw, which explicitly disallows downvotes).
For me, it hides every post I clicked on, even when I haven’t voted or commented
It should, clicking into a post is what it counts as reading it. Voting or commenting is a separate action.
