Any possibility of a "Mark as read on scroll" feature to Jerboa?
This was a feature that I fell in love with on Boost. I like to sort by top day and do short quick bursts of scrolling through the feed, so it helped a lot.
I'm not even sure if it's possible on lemmy, or if anyone else feels they'd get use from it as well.

That would really be useful, if I scrolled past a post the first time, I will also scroll past it every other time, I don't need to see it again.
Workaround on Jerboa (maybe also other apps, haven't checked) - turn on "hide read posts" and simply upvote/downvote as you scroll. Upvoting/downvoting marks posts as read in Jerboa even if you haven't clicked in, so it's pretty effective.
It's a nice workaround for sure, but the only thing I don't like is that it auto-updates. If I click on a post and then go back to the list, the post is gone. I wish it only hid the post until I manually refreshed the page.
Been wanting this ever since i tried Jerboa. It was my favorite thing about Boost.
If it doesn't exist: https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/issues You can create an Enhancement request.
There's already an issue at https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/issues/535
Came here to say this. Thanks!
Jerboa doesn't even mark messages as read when you open them :P
It does it you reply though, so I guess we really want you to engage with the platform. ;)
"Sit yo ass down, you're not done reading until I SAY you're done reading!"
Boost user here, yes please!
Not to hijack this, but is there any Lemmy app out there that does this currently?
Fellow joey user, love this feature and need it too
Mark as read while scrolling > hide read on re-open > (in case you need to re watch something) temporarly unhide read posts
Sync has this and it's amazing
Or at least it would be nice to color differently posts that have already been seen. And when clicking on already-read posts only expand the new comments.
I wrote a issue on githup for this. The developer has marked low as medium priority. But I think he Won't. https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/issues/836
Is that a dup of this one? That one is medium, so there's a chance. ;)
Is there a Way to Hide Posts from Feed that has been Marked Read ?
You can make a request to attract attention on github
That's not how Github works. You need exactly one issue for a request and can then upvote it. Otherwise the dev might get annoyed.
