I have "show read posts" unchecked, so posts I've clicked no longer show in my feed. I'd like to hide posts I'm not interested in seeing without clicking on them.

Not that i am aware of on the web ui or mobile

The web UI doesn't have a way to do that right now (hopefully an update will add that in the future) but some mobile and progressive web apps do have this option. I'm trying out wefwef on my Android phone and you can click the vertical ... menu on a post and choose the hide option, or (thanks to a recent update) swipe to the left. I suggest trying out some of the apps in development and seeing if there's one that's useful.

That's a nice feature, unfortunately it only hides posts within wefwef and doesn't carry over. I'll have to deal with it for now I guess.

The best I've been able to do is upvoting posts to clear them from my feed, which doesn't meet the criteria. Being unable to hide posts I don't want to interact with without interacting with them is pretty annoying.

What app are you using that let's you hide with upvote? I would actually like that.

Looking into it, I'm pretty sure it's part of unchecking "show read posts" in user settings, same as clicking on them. I checked on Lemmy and it works there.
