When people upvote dumb shit it upsets me.

Things that are low quality.
I need to work on the algo is all.

Why not a category tab like "Q&A" "new user bio" "Discussion" "News" for each new post and then add a sorting feature?
reply
Time to come clean i guess. I have been upvoting almost every submission in the recent tab because it makes the icon orange and i can see if there is new submissions next time I visit because i havent upvoted it yet. I know it's kinda trashy but it works well for me.

Thanks for coming clean!
Would a "mark as read" feature help the problem you are trying to solve? Open to all kinds of suggestions on ways we can help. Other users have said they do the same thing.

Could add the show/hide button like those you have for comments.
reply
Yep, that's an idea. It'd be a consistent UX too which is nice.
reply
depending on how its done i dont think i will be using this because threads that have been already read is nice to still track the number of comments in case one of them blows up

that sounds like a good idea am concerned that it might potentially clutter the interface if there is a checkbox next to each thread with "mark as read".
in that case maybe the option could come up in the dialog box when you long press the upvote and if checked the icon will turn orange or maybe if we had to double click in order to upvote so the first click is just you marking it as read but the second click gives a sat or whichever your default is. or something even better :) doesn't have to be perfect i guess
reply
Yes. Mark as read

Like a post that has Delete.me as the link, which occurred because after submitting, that post was no longer wanted (so the link gets changed, before the 10 minute edit window has passed). And there's no way to delete a post.
But then after a 1 sat tip, that post then shows on the "front page" (when there's few other upvotes.)
