Hiding read posts stopped working (lemm.ee)

I have "Show read posts" disabled in the settings, but it just stopped working all of a sudden. Since yesterday I'm seeing read posts again.

I tried toggling the setting, clearing cache and switching instances, but no luck so far.

Anybody else who has this problem? Any idea how to fix it?

Edit: Looks like it's a problem with the new Lemmy version!

I think it's because your instance is on 0.19.4 and that changed something with hiding posts

That was my first thought as well! But I also tried LW which is still on 0.19.3, same problem.

Edit: My bad! I had "show read posts" enabled on my LW account, and read posts are correctly hidden when I disable it. So it really seems to be a problem with the new version.

If you use your lemm.ee account, it doesn't matter which instance you visit in Boost. It is always tied to the functionality of your account's instance.

I switched the account in the app, so it should use it and fetch content from LW.

Huh, I'm on lemmy.world and it works perfectly fine

how do I visit a different instance so that the setting works?

Never worked as expected for me too. I've switched to voyager, working great there.
