    As Tildes gets bigger, I imagine it will be harder and harder to reach the bottom, at which point refreshing the feed should also be reduced

    Thanks for considering it!

    A floating button at the bottom of the feed sounds perfect.

    As far as behavior goes, to me the ideal behavior is to only get rid of posts you've seen up to the point at which you trigger the action. That is to say don't auto remove posts as you go into them and come back (or any after you last performed the action). The current way it works is you trigger the action, it gets rid of posts you've seen (great!), but then once you go into a post and come back, it gets rid of that post as well (to me, an inconvenience, since I have to untoggle the hide viewed post setting). Reasoning behind this is I might accidentally gesture out of the thread, and want to go back. Or after I make a comment, might want to go back pretty immediately. If it was gated behind another user action, it would seem to be more my fault and thus acceptable.

    Awesome that's exactly what I was looking for, sorry I missed it! I'll play around with it a bit - wonder if it could be made more discoverable / prominent. Thanks for the hard work!

    One feature I really enjoyed in Apollo which would be great is a button to dismiss all of your already viewed topics - an easy way to concentrate on new topics

    Having tried both the Sony xm4's and the Galaxy pro buds 2, I actually liked the buds pro better to my surprise.

    They're a bit smaller and lighter than the xm4's and to my ears provide a much better seal. Also helps that they can be easily used while working out or running.

    If you're just planning on sitting and listening to music the Sony's would likely be better

    Surfboard has been pretty awesome so far (if you're on iOS)! Been enjoying the UI and gesture support

    They mentioned a Digital Wellness Beta in the article. Here's the link to sign up (must have a Pixel device, and Android 9.0). https://www.android.com/versions/pie-9-0/digital-wellbeing-beta/
