How can I hide a pinned post without blocking the poster? It bothers me having this at the top of my list all the time, like some reminder on my phone I can't ack and make go away.
No, just at the top of the Linux community. I sort on New by default, looking for anything new Linux related... it's been slow news in there of late. I'll check if Voyager supports a method of doing it. Another user suggested Sync client. I'm usually on my desktop browser, though.
I just unpinned the post. I figured there may be others bothered by this, and plus its been enough weeks at this point. Thanks for voicing this to me :)
Shoot, I'm sorry. Thank you for doing that for me (and us, if there happen to be others). I do feel bad you felt forced to do that, though. :( I should just accept it is how it is until Lemmy devs a way. I'm sorry.
Most third-party Lemmy clients should support this. For instance, if you're on Sync, you can just swipe it hide the post (assuming you've configured it that way).
