    When Reddit shut down 3rd party apps. I only used Joey for a single reason, it autohides post after scrolling past them very well, it was the only way reddit is tolerable is by only seeing a post once. Now I use Connect which has a similar autohide feature and I am enjoying Lemmy a lot more than i ever did reddit.

      Joey was the best. I came here before Joey died, but the day it died for good I only went to Reddit once. I talked mad shit to a particularly horrible mod and got my account permanently banned. Haven’t looked back since.

      I sure wish codesforliving would create a joey for lemmy. I’d pay for that again in a heartbeat. One of the best apps I ever had.

      Same reason here, my 3rd party app was BaconReader and now using Connect. I didn’t know Connect had an auto hide feature, I’ll have to check that out.

        I have “scrolling past marks as read” enabled, and then in my Lemmy account setting I have “show read posts” disabled, so it hides basically anything I’ve already seen. Comes in handy :)
