Long stickied post always visible
I understand there’s a lot of work going into this app so I wanted to thank you right off the bat!
I’m having an issue I can’t seem to figure out how to resolve and it’s unfortunately making the app unusable for me.
Every time I look at my feed the first post is a very long stickied post about how to use Lemmy World. While it’s helpful information, I have to scroll past it every time I go to use the app no matter the sort I choose. The only way around this is to go to a specific community directly. It takes so long to scroll past I’ve just given up using the app for now.
Is there a way to collapse posts in the feed or hide read posts, or ignore stickied posts? I’ve been using the mobile web browser in the meantime but it’s not ideal.
Thank you!
I think the best thing would have a view type where you only see the titles of the post. At least that's what I used on Apollo and loved, and still miss.
That feature should be coming in one of the next builds--the code is written and currently in review
Amazing, thank you!
Yeah I agree or just seeing the title of the post instead of the post itself?
This is on their roadmap, although it’s labelled a feature. I think it should be more urgent since it ruins the UX.

I see the same thing, only it’s a post about how lemmy.ml is overloaded. Hiding posts would be nice.
Mlem has a filter option, just add a new filter and put “Lemmy.world starter guide” or whatever the title of that post was. It worked for me!
Also, the filter is case sensitive so spell it exactly how it appears or it won’t work.
Thank you for this suggestion! It works like a charm until we get a more long term approach!
It kind of does. It would be great if they weren’t case sensitive, and could be edited rather than just deleted…
So glad I’m not the only one annoyed by this! This app is lovely but the text posts are a little ridiculous sometimes.
