You can long tap on the username of the thread you want to hide. It was not the most intuitive thing for me but I found it accidentally and maybe I can save you from the searching!

    I figure a coupla folks are trying to learn the ins and outs of Jerboa today 😁

    Thanks for the tip! Do any of y’all have advice on how to find new communities or instances to subscribe to within the app? I only have a vague understanding of how Lemmy works, but I know I can subscribe to communities outside my instance, I’m just struggling to figure out how to search for new ones.

      Copied from another explanation: >use your search feature on your main instance and enter !{community_name}@{instance_url} then you can subscribe

      So for example if you want to sub to the memes community in lemmy.ml then go to Search, type in “!memes@lemmy.ml”, under Search change the dropdown from Communities to All (important step), then you should see the community which you can subscribe and post to.
