I know there’s supposed to be a “hide read posts” setting, and maybe I’m blind, but I don’t see it.
Good way to see new posts is to change your sort on your homepage. You’re probably set to the default of Local Active. Try instead setting to Local New Posts or All Active. That will help surface communities with recent activity.
Or subscribed if you want to include all the non-local communities.
It’s in your user profile, well hidden, and not in an easy place to toggle. But if you click on your name, go to settings, uncheck “Show read posts”.
Why can I not find this. We are talking kbin here, right?
Sir, this is a Wendy’s
But in all seriousness, this is a setting for the Lemmy web UI. Maybe kbin has it too? 🤷♂️
We’re talking lemmy. But can you recommend any good kbin magazines? I just made an account on kbin like 10 minutes ago.
It’s also not letting me to reply to tinwhiskers. Guessing that’s because of the issues with kbin and lemmy federation they’ve been having? Curious if he’s able to reply to me also
My initial reply was to @tinwhiskers@kbin.social but I’m on my own hosted instance, which is too small to be federated to kbin.social, I guess? I signed up on kbin.social and none of my replies from here on lemmy are present in the threads on kbin.social.
Reminder that kbin is now federated
I’m not seeing it in kbin either. Perhaps Dave has joined us from elsewhere!
You can tell by looking at the magazine name or hovering on the user. Dave is apparently from sh.itjust.works.
Ah, I’m on mobile so don’t get the hover option. But when I click on his name it shows he’s from Lemmy.nz?? Hmm.
Completely glazed over that for some reason, thank you!
No problem, I would not call it obvious.
Your instance may also be hitting this bug that results in the “hot” timeline not updating at all.
Subscribe to communities you like, go to the “Subscribed” view, and sort by new. The devs have a fix in the next code release so should be fixed very soon.
