Suggestion: Could we get rid of this icon? - LemmyWorld

For the longest time I was wondering what this icon is about. It seems kind of redundant because posts that I read before are already greyed out. Does the icon serve another purpose because I feel like it clutters the interface. Could we get rid of it?

Text should not be greyed out in the next build i believe. Though i can’t remember if i changed that or just thought about changing it. Our thought with the icon being accented like that is so you can quickly glance at it and see it and be like “oh i read this already”.

I don’t think it’s useful to put an eyecatcher to a post you already read, which this icon is. I prefer that they fade to the background because they’re less important.

Well you can always hide read posts too if you don’t want to see them
