(feat): ability to hide posts.

[Granitosaurus]

It would be nice if you could hide posts permanently from your feeds.

Reasoning

It really sucks to see the same posts over and over again. Especially from channels you like so you cannot block them and if those posts are broad enough they even appear on multiple feeds - which really sucks.

Hiding posts will also help discoverability and increase meaningful engagement.

Hey @markharding
Why would open source projects feature suggestions go to anywhere but the issue tracker? Isn't that's the whole point of the issue tracker?
It's seems a bit backwards to discuss this on 2nd party system.

To add to that the minds.com group is not a place where you can propose code changes, share snipets and attach PR. So really I'm just confused by this if anything.

[Serkan-devel]

It's even harder to search for issues if they have been proposed long ago. It's like using Facebook as an issue-tracker

[Serkan-devel]

Is there a way to natively link github code on minds, or make the interaction for development more seamless?

[markharding]

We need to keep the github environment purely for technical issues and separate from consumer end requests or else it will become out of hand. (Theres an unlimited amount of features).

That being said, if you have a pull request with a solution, then please do open a PR request and we'll go from there!

[Granitosaurus]

Sorry but I still disagree with it.
There's unlimited space for issues and they can be easily handled with tags etc.

I feel that it's nigh on impossible to just go straight and submit a PR without discussing the feature first. I wouldn't work on some feature just for it to get rejected.
Issues are great of laying the foundation for PR and discussing whether feature is even necessary, maybe it even exists already or whether it will be accepted at all.

Also to add to that as Serkan-devel pointed out minds group is really bad for this as it has no search, tags, or anything else other than being a thread, to the point where using a mailing list would even be a step up.

[Serkan-devel]

Post about this pr #77 has been rejected on the Minds open source group (at least it hasn't been approved, but others were). I still didn't get any answers about it for months on minds.

[ottman]

We are going to be coming out with a better process for feature requests and prioritization than the support group in the future but you have to understand we have thousands of requests and GitHub isn't the right place. We are logging everything mentioned.

[Serkan-devel]

Maybe a custom issue board on minds, which one can easily look into the first issue for example
