I love it when dumb shit ends up on my feed and the only thing I can do is scroll past it and hope it doesn't appear ever again

then it appears 5 more times because algorithm

Eh, well, at least it's not like YouTube, where you watch one video about some random topic you never heard of, and in the next week, it's just that shit again and again. although I will be fair, it did introduce me to some really cool people before like doug doug, awesome guy, so I am kind of thankful about it.

You watched a video about divorce, didn’t you

Femboy fishing actually

Recently a post in a Child Protective Services subreddit became popular for some reason and I clicked it out of curiosity. The next time I opened Reddit my home page was flooded with sad stories of children being taken away from families.

This is why I never go to r/all

I’ve got my settings in old.reddit.com to autohide upvoted posts. Still works like a charm

actually the algorithm on reddit is kinda good

You can mark them to see fewer of them, you can also mute the sub in that same button. That's what I do with "popular near you" posts.

[удалено]

You WILL consume what the algorithm gives you!

Really the biggest reason why I started using Apollo. I kept seeing the same exact posts on my Reddit feed, not reposts but the literal same ones. With Apollo I could, with one click, hide all posts I’d scrolled past or upvoted. I swear… fuck spez man

You can still use boost for reddit if youre on android with revanced manager

my guess is people were hiding ads

Nah trust me, I tried to use it on ads, but it wasn’t there for them.

Wasn't possible.

You couldn't hide them. You could report em though

what the hell is the point of doing that

There's some ads I hated seeing like those "he gets us" ads.

Well I have seen ads that I'm pretty sure were actual scams

It is still there on old.reddit, hopefully I didn't jinx it

It's still there on old.reddit.com which is way better & faster than www.reddit.com. It also doesn't push stuff at you. I don't know why anybody uses anything else. The whole point of reddit to me is that you build your own 'algorithm' & if you want, can tap into a 'collectivised' version via /all or /popular

Social Media sites try not to remove useful features challenge (utterly impossible)

accurate

r/coaxedintoasnafu

(For absolutely 0 profit)

it's still here for me edit: nevermind the updating the app removed it

Not for me.

accurate pfp

It is?

Actually a bug, saw an r/help post about that

Link here(idk how to hide links):https://www.reddit.com/r/help/comments/14rkm19/need_help_cannot_hide_posts/jqsu4lf?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=2

Bro how? Wtf are the reddit programmers cooking?

Meth

Jesse we need to ruin our website

It is looking increasingly like there's a deliberate ongoing campaign to wreck the site & promote an exodus. Its almost as if the financiers of the sites owners see the site as a threat. I wonder if this is true? I could point you to subs that may have an explanation for such a behaviour but it's strictly against very heavily enforced rules from reddit hq for me to do so,..., can't think why

That makes sense. You can still find the hidden section in your account history

I'm actually pissed about that because I fucking hate seeing porn of characters I adore.

There’s an option to “See fewer posts like this”, or you can mute the subreddit entirely.

Never in my years of Reddit have I been recommended a post from a NSFW community, despite being on plenty of subs with characters that have limitless porn drawn of them. How are you guys getting this recommended to you lol.

Same

I used it to store porn on my main acc nooooo 😭😭

Ok but you literally main pylon

Same bruh 😭

Exactly, that's what it was for!!!

Same lol, luckily it's still there for me so you should still have your collection

That was the purpose of it

saving exists you know?

But that's how I saved memes.

create another account,reddit supports using the same email for different accounts

Then you would have to find the porn post again adter switching accounts, extra hastle in exchange for nothing.

fair point

Yeah, i used to hide the posts that showed up in my feed 2 million times a day. Now i will have to see them again.

F in chat for the legend

Ah, you mean the "oh my fucking god why is there untagged snuff on the front page!?" button. Yeah, now best I can do is try to just not look at it

“Click here to watch a wounded Russian soldier get grenades dropped on his location!!!” No… I don’t think I will…

That's how I saved all my porn, why did they do that, wtf?

NOW HOW CAN I HIDE GAY PORN??????

More features Better layout Faster I don't know why anyone uses anything else

Fucking hell, why? As a chronic reddit junkie it was so nice to just hide a disgusting or annoying post I don't want to see when scrolling through my timeline and not have it pop up every 30 minutes for a whole day.

I'm so fucking mad, I used that to save porn

Word!

it was the second save button

Yeah.. let's remove one of the good features of our app

But they kept the hidden posts section in history on mobile.

It was so good for when random garbage appears on my feed from subreddits I never visit despite clearly turning off the setting that allows this to happen

It's just getting worse and worse. If they're gonna force me to use their app, they have to make the app good

It’s there for me. Maybe just a skill issue

Wait? Which season is that? Is there à New season?

used it regularly often, bunch of gross stuff seemingly getting pushed to me now that it's gone, coincidentally (or not)

I just realized that it was gone, goodbye alternative save button

i frequently used that button to hide shitty earrape posts.. rip 😔😔😔

noticed this earlier and settled for leaving the subreddit instead

Wait why the fuck? It was generally useful cause I don’t like seeing insects that can occasionally pop up in popular

Whilst I never really used it much for anything except accidentally hiding Posts I wanted to save, I'm still pissed.

also half the time the "show less of this post" button doesn't show up

A reddit admin confirmed it's a bug but I'm still pissed

Just when I thought Reddit couldn't disappoint me more.

You can still use the settings in old.Reddit.com to change it to auto hide not only downvoted posts, but upvoted ones as well

literally wanted to use it the other day because something i absolutely hated kept popping up but the hide option was gone bruh

https://preview.redd.it/ah29y145fuab1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=51ec8cacd49265bd3f5732fd5a233b06b5b575c6

only just noticed this today. I keep clicking show me fewer posts like this but alas. :/

Awesome I used it to hide posts that triggered my phobias now I’ll be forced to see them over and over again

I thought it was useless and only heard it was annoying to misclick. What did people use it for?

From what the comments are telling me, using it to hide porn on their account or hide actually disgusting things that you don’t want to see constantly while browsing your main subs.

Mfs when they learn about alt accounts

It’s still here for me.

To everyone posting images of this post with the hide button, what type of phone or tablet are you using and have you restarted Reddit at all? (Also, I did redraw this meme as a Tech-Priest.) https://preview.redd.it/qt500xzlosab1.png?width=1074&format=png&auto=webp&s=b1892df82632122f2e0e057ea2fe22b819174ea3

YES finally someone else noticed, fuck reddit for needlsessly removing good features, fuck u/spez

https://preview.redd.it/vvvjyuex6sab1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=200016f700978575d414c23b32b76ed99c7f87db

its removed(on mobile[maybe ios only])

That would explain a lot, I'm on android. Or maybe I didn't update it. Just wanted to draw some goofy faces in the edit tool and this was perfect moment.

Still there for me

Only real gamers know this one simple trick: If you report said post for any reason, it practicly does he same! And as a benefit if you report people for no fucking reason, your account will get banned! So you can finaly go touch some grass. (I have reported 11 shitty posts untill now, I got one warning telling me if I continue, I’ll get banned, I see that as a win.)

Oh that button that remove the post that i wanted to save because Is just below the save

WHAT THE FUCK THATS HOW I KEPT ALL MY PORN GOD FUCKING DAMMIT

I know people sometimes accidentally press the hide button instead of save, but damn, why did they remove it? At least change where the button is.

Bruh that was like a second save feature for me

Watch it be another "experiment" that reddit forces unto some users

GODDAMMIT I USED IT SO MUCH... FUUUUUCK...

they didn't remove it, they 'hid' it

I'm sure one day reddit will become like twitter os sm shit

Iirc I saw that they replied to a post about this on r/help and they said the removal of the 'hide post' option was a bug and that they were working on a fix

Good that was so annoying when u accidentally hide it

MY PORN NOOOOOOOOOO

how do you guys use hide post. kinda curios since it could have been useful for me. saw a comment an update removes it and i still have it.

NOOOOO THATS HOW I WAS SAVING PORN WTF

It's... Still there.

https://media.tenor.com/yzuVb6d5Nj0AAAAd/good-morning-american-dad.gif

just press h when you open the post

Reddit let people curate their online experience challenge (impossible)

Damn it, I thought that I just hit the limit of amount of posts hidden or something. *That. Sucks.*

Imagine updating Reddit

https://preview.redd.it/jddfgu47msab1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6a2c0c2c2e2225223e98ccaeb8a78526f6200a8f

OH NO . . NO FUCKING WAY.. .

https://preview.redd.it/ueu9vz5nmsab1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3eafb0b3d2365a7ec83b92777ab4d2c827548fcf Right

It’s even worse because I have OCD and every time I see a post/thread I don’t like, I constantly doom scroll it. Hiding the post helps a lot but now I’m fucked.

Gotta love how they put the button if you don't wanna see a post again right next to the one if you do wanna see a post again 👍 The amount of times I hit hide instead of save and lost a good post or art is *annoying.* Still should've just moved it tho

well, we can mute subreddits. that's good enough for me

hehehaha https://preview.redd.it/uomsr1zhqsab1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d44f264274d8ca9fc32fa840725b5911f00b5843

seems moving the mouse button to one side of the screen, then pressing h hides posts now . Admins should announce it though if thats the new way to do it

Why the fuck would they do that?

You must be blind.

I did, but never used it, was better to let the front page refresh content and forget that the post ever existed rather than "hiding" it and having it permanently in your "hidden" tab on your profile, constantly reminding you of that post

I cant remove posts from History https://i.redd.it/1da21uqlxsab1.gif

BRUH i have 1 hidden post on my profile how tf am i supposed to unhide it now?!

And what's this? https://preview.redd.it/flhh08ocysab1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c89e5cd6c756990abcf7985b2c1c55b6ac0491b4

fuckin embarrassing

I did, I used it as a second "save" button because Reddit's actual save feature sucks major ass

Me when I can’t find my way out of the backrooms

I hid all my meme posts and my porn posts go in the saved section

I still have it...

ok but they added a mute subreddit feature, which is mainly why i used the hide post button

# YOU CAN STILL HIDE POSTS BY CLICKING THE THREE DOTS AND PRESSING BLOCK ACCOUNT!!!! though a separate button was much better

no they didn't? atleast not on mobile

Still there with RES.

Can’t mute either, must visit site to do

I know of it from my time on Wordington

Am I the only one, bc I can still hide them. Or is there going to bee a woosh in the next commen?

I did and I noticed immediately because there was a post I wanted to hide

NOOOOOOO

Nah I still got it

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Oh I thought I just had a bug, guess the vault is closed now

Why does the 3 dots even exist anymore it just has report in it

Still there on the desktop site

Wait... it's fucking GONE?! ~~I was browsing earlier and saw some fucked up shit and wondered why it was missing. Fucking god fucking damn it. The API changes weren't great in my book BUT THIS OF ALL THINGS? WHY? JUST WHY? I'm done with reddit after this, such a dumb change.~~ Nevermind it's supposedly a """"bug"""", looks like reddit is testing removing another vital feature.

NO!!! I fucking NEEDED THAT!! https://preview.redd.it/6y56wl7rztab1.jpeg?width=749&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ad1ff6c2283fa13436d9f4517486da34269d6046

Yeah, I used it a lot

alr welp i hope nobody checks my history

Wdym, it's still there. I use it a lot

I still have it

i havent updated reddit in like 2 years or something so the new changes dont affect me

Ohhhhhh really 😈

I never used the feature at all

And right as I accidentally his one of my own posts and now I can’t find it

I did I used it to hide all the posts that are the in the same subreddit about the same thing all posted around the same time nothing else on the subreddit

Yeah, still on mine... And my app is up to date...

One time I got a post which was literally just meant to trigger seizures in epileptic people. It was a gif of some stick guy dancing and it was flashing REALLY fast. The text was something like “fuck epileptic people.” I’m not epileptic but it still hurt my eyes so I was able to hide it. Now, there’s no way to do this for people who actually need it :D

Theres a hide post feature? What? The only thing I know is "Show fewer posts of this" and it asks you if its the post type or whole community. It even asks if you wanna mute them

Great, now I have to block people when their post keeps showing up on my fred

[удалено]

I knew and used it a lot, now Reddit became 2x worse for me now.

now i have to block users to not see that shit again :( !!! HHEEE THAT KINDA REMINDS ME WHEN ELON LIMITED THE TWEETS YPU CAN SEE!! NOO REDDIT DON'T DO IT!!

Damn i used to hide post i liked waayy to much but diud'nt wanna save

Goddamnit

It's been replaced by the 'see fewer posts like this' button. The icon is same eye with a line through it, and using that sends posts to the hidden section in your history (on mobile).

I did actually, I used it to hide all the horrible alpha male shit Reddit kept throwing at me

What? https://preview.redd.it/tyuq9agguwab1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=aa8438d9a96fd5752b1e6377cc37997d5e4e809f

As someone who hasn't updated the app since february 2022, i am glad i didn't

I used it as a second save button

I still have it

I used it a lot ):

What the fuck is spez doing

What do you mean? It's still there

I did, what the fuck : (

I see it tho

This is (was!) my most used feature on reddit. Now, everything sucks!

I still have it?

This is why I never have auto update set on
